What is Lal Dora Land? Delhi Property Laws Explained

In the sprawl of Delhi’s urban villages, legacy and legality clash in curious ways. One fascinating piece of history is Lal Dora land, a classification that dates back to 1908 when the British were in control. It was created to define the areas where villages were settled, keeping them separate from agricultural fields. These zones, marked by red lines, were free from municipal regulations. Fast forward to today, and they represent a unique legal grey area in Delhi’s real estate market, drawing in buyers with the allure of affordable ownership, but also the risk of unclear regulations. The term “Lal Dora,” which translates to “Red Line,” refers to that very boundary that was established to differentiate the residential parts of a village from its farming land.
