Shajra  A shujra or shujrah is a detailed village map that is used for legal (land ownership) and administrative purposes in India and Pakistan. A "shujra" maps out the village lands into land parcels and gives each parcel a unique number. The "patwari" (or village accountant) maintains a record for each one of these parcels in documents called "khasras". Aks-Shajrah is the copy of the map.
