Patwari keeps the land records of a village.
The Patwari's primary duties include measuring land and maintaining land records. Different states have different names for the patwari. These officers go by various names in different villages, such as Lekhpal, Kanungo, Karamchari, Village Officer, etc. Each Patwari is in charge of a collection of villages. The village's records are updated and maintained by the patwari. The patwari can typically measure a farmer's field. In some locations, a long chain is used. The Patwari is also in charge of organizing the collection of land revenue from the farmers and informing the government about the crops grown in the region.
