CIRCLE OFFICERS AND CIRCLE INSPECTORS
In order to assist the Mamlatdar in exercising proper supervision over village officers and village servants and to make
local enquiries or every kind promptly, Circle Officers in the
grade of Awal Karkuns and Circle Inspectors in the grade of Karkuns are appointed. The Circle Officer certifies entries in the
record of rights and thus relieves the Mamlatdar of a good deal
of routine work. There are from 30 to 50 villages in charge of
a Circle Officer or a Circle Inspector. These officers form a link
between the Mamlatdar and the village officers. There are
generally one Circle Officer and four Circle Inspectors in each
taluka. Their duties relate to—
(i) boundary mark inspection, inspection of crops including their annewari, the inspection of tagai works and detection of illegal occupation of land;
(ii) preparation of agricultural and other statistical returns, viz., crop statistics, cattle census, and water-supply;
(iii) supervision of the village officers in the preparation and maintenance of the record of rights, the mutation register and the tenancy register;
(iv) examination of rayats' receipt books and supervision of the revenue collection; and
(v) such other miscellaneous work as the Mamlatdar may from time to time entrust them with, e.g., enquiry into any alleged encroachments.
