Punjab Newsline, Chandigarh –
Haryana Government is spearheading major advancements in land administration, including a large-scale mapping program, boundary demarcation with Uttar Pradesh, and the implementation of a fully paperless property registration system.
Chairing a comprehensive review meeting with all Deputy Commissioners, Financial Commissioner Revenue (FCR), Dr. Sumita Misra emphasized the timely execution of all critical projects. She directed officers to ensure the completion of Tatima updation work-the digitization and verification of land parcel maps by August 2025.
Dr. Misra noted that the state is also on course to erect 1,221 boundary pillars between Haryana and Uttar Pradesh, in line with the directives of the Survey of India. These efforts are focused in districts including Panipat, Sonipat, Faridabad, Palwal, and Karnal. Maps based on SoI surveys have been shared with the respective districts, and funds have been released to execute the work effectively.
Highlighting the importance of digitized land records, the FCR reviewed the progress of establishing Modern Revenue Record Rooms (MRRRs) in districts. She directed that all document verification of the digitised records be completed by August 15.
Importantly, she announced that registration services in Haryana will soon become entirely paperless on the lines of Passport Seva Kendra system. This step aims to enhance transparency, reduce delays, and improve the citizen experience.
Dr. Misra informed that new software has been developed which allows simultaneous mutation at the time of ownership registration. This integration is expected to drastically reduce the pendency of mutation cases. Dr. Misra said that under the new digital initiatives, a dedicated portal would be made and be operational by August 2025. This Revenue Court Case Management System will improve overall accountability, reduce pendency, and make land-related services faster and more accessible to the public. She added that with this new initiative the monitoring will be more transparent at the headquarter as well as district level.
The FCR also disclosed that demarcation processes across the state will soon be conducted through advanced rovers and directed all Deputy Commissioners to ensure staff training and procurement of equipment in advance. Dr. Misra further urged DCs to submit pending verification reports for Phase-II of the Agriculture Census 2021–22, particularly from the 16 districts yet to comply with Government of India mandates.
Dr. Misra revealed that disciplinary proceedings are being initiated against 38 erring revenue officers, including 6 District Revenue Officers (DROs), 23 Tehsildars, and 9 Naib Tehsildars. She further emphasized DCs for timely reporting and accountability to ensure that all officers adhere to the guidelines and complete their tasks efficiently.
