🗺️ VDA Layout Map Authentication Guide

How to Spot Fake VDA Layout Maps in Varanasi (2026)

Step-by-step verification process to distinguish authentic Varanasi Development Authority (VDA) maps from forged colonizer drawings.

5 Steps to Verify VDA Layout Map Authenticity

1

Check VDA Dispatch / Letter Number

Every approved layout map has a unique VDA file reference number (e.g. VDA/BP/2024/XXXX). Verify this file number on the VDA online portal.

2

Verify Khasra & Gata Numbers

Ensure your plot's specific Khasra number is explicitly mentioned inside the approved layout boundary table.

3

Road Width & Park Open Space Clearance

VDA approved layouts require minimum 30-40 ft main access roads and mandatory green park area. Private fake maps shrink roads to 20 ft to maximize plot sales.
