Introduction
Many land buyers assume excised land is automatically safe, which is a dangerous misconception.
What Is Excision?
Excision is when the government releases land previously under acquisition back to indigenous owners.
What Is a Gazette?
A Gazette is an official government publication confirming excision details.
Key Differences
Excision is the action, while Gazette is the documented proof.
Why Gazette Matters
Gazette details show approved coordinates and conditions attached to the land.
Conclusion
Excision without Gazette confirmation is risky. Always verify gazette records before purchase.
