The legal spelling used here is the 2009 gazette spelling, because the gazette is the instrument that declared the region. The other spellings are carried so a search on either form finds this record.

These are Census of India 2011 codes. Village codes are reissued between censuses, so they must not be read as current Local Government Directory codes. No Local Government Directory code was available to this extraction, and no Gujarati spelling was available for any of the twenty two villages, so none was transliterated or guessed.

Town planning scheme membership

Membership is recorded from the title block of each scheme sheet. What is not recorded anywhere is how much of Rahatalav lies inside each scheme. Every sheet uses the words part villages, so only a portion of the revenue area is inside, and no supplied document gives that portion in hectares or as a percentage.

Rahatalav is one of the four part villages of the Activation Area, the 22.54 sq km first phase. Quoted: the Activation Area (22.54 sq. km of first phase development) has been developed under the framework of approved town planning schemes - 2A and 4A Source: DSIRDA about page mirror, as at 7 July 2026.

  • No Gujarati spelling of Rahatalav exists in any source document, so the field is empty rather than transliterated.
  • The share of Rahatalav that lies inside any scheme is unknown. Every scheme sheet says part villages and none quantifies the part.
  • No land class is recorded against Rahatalav or against any parcel in it. The two datasets behind this atlas contain no tenure class at all, which is set out in full on the land classes page.
  • Population, amenities and village level census attributes were not extracted. This record carries codes, names and the schedule figures only.
