Type, original: Petition; Original

Content

Abstract: This document relates to a petition by people of Kirtipur whose noses had been cut off and whose land had been seized. These people had been directed to show up in person at the Kausī in order to register the amount of revenue due on land they had afterwards been provided, but many of them did not do so, which prompted the authority to penalize the whole group. The present document testifies to a later, undated decision that determined that their land was not to enjoy the same status as that of others in the Valley who had had land restored to them.
