Patna: Aerial survey for land in Bihar, which started on May 22 from Suryagarha in Lakhisarai district, has not been resumed after monsoon due to heavy clouds. The programme was suspended during monsoon and state government had decided to relaunch the aerial survey from October.
Revenue and land reforms department secretary Hukum Singh Meena said since the sky is still overcast, survey will not be reliable and clear. "Once sky is clear, survey would be relaunched. Earlier, we had decided to resume the aerial operation from September-October," he said.
