Nashik, May 6 (UNI) Maharashtra Revenue Minister Chandrashekhar Bawankule today issued directives to discontinue the issuance of 7/12 land extracts for lands located in areas—specifically villages—that have been newly incorporated into the limits of various municipalities and municipal corporations across the state due to boundary expansions.
