What is Bigha in Indian Land Measurement?
Bigha is a traditional unit of land measurement widely used in Northern, Western, and Eastern states of India. Unlike standard metrics like Square Feet or Acres, the value of one Bigha is not uniform across India; it varies significantly from one state to another based on historical land measuring rods (known as Gattha or Latha).
