★ ★ ★ ★ ★ The Settlement of land and Assessment of Land revenue dates back to the Mughal period followed by the Britishers. Britishers adopted systematic and traditional methods of survey of land. After Independence there was a small unit of Settlement in Himachal Pradesh which was temporary department. Initially, it was a temporary department and was declared as permanent department on 31-7-1970.
Settlement was a single unit till 1977 and thereafter it was bifurcated into two Divisions i.e. Kangra Division and Shimla Division.
