When any local area is under survey operation the Record Officer may issue a proclamation directing all Gram Panchayat and Bhumidhars to erect, within fifteen days such boundary marks, as he may think necessary to define the limits of the villages and fields and in default, he may cause such boundary marks to be erected, and the Collector shall recover the cost of their erection from the Gram Panchayats or Bhumidhars concerned.
