Now, the citizens of Himachal Pradesh need to visit the office only once to get their land registry done, and they can apply for land registration anytime and from anywhere, which will save their time and effort.
Chief Minister Thakur Sukhvinder Singh Sukhu on Friday launched the ‘My Deed’ NGDRS (National Generic Document Registration System) Pilot Project to make land registry easier and more convenient for the people. This project has been launched in Bilaspur Sadar Tehsil of Bilaspur district, Dalhousie tehsil of Chamba district, Galore tehsil of Hamirpur district, Jaisinghpur tehsil of Kangra district, Bhuntar tehsil of Kullu district Padhar tehsil of Mandi district, Kumarsain tehsil of Shimla district, Rajgarh tehsil of Sirmaur district, Kandaghat tehsil of Solan district and Bangana tehsil of Una district.
Along with this, the Chief Minister also launched the new format of Jamabandi, e-Roznamcha Vakyati, and Kaarguzari initiatives to improve the working of the revenue department and make the process more people-friendly and easier.
The new Jamabandi format has been made simpler and is now in easy-to-understand Hindi. Old languages like Urdu, Arabic, and Farsi have been removed so that common people can easily understand land records. The e-Roznamcha Vakyati will help Patwaris maintain a digital record of daily events, while Kaarguzari will be used for marking daily attendance online. Tehsildars will also be able to keep better track of the work being done. An online mutation register will also be linked soon.
The Chief Minister said that technology should be used to improve services, help people, bring transparency, and make revenue services more efficient. “We should move towards a system that is paperless, presence-less, and cashless so that people can get government services from the comfort of their homes,” he added.
He said that the present state government is committed to providing transparent and responsive governance to the people of the state and has initiated various reforms to promote digitization in the day-to-day functioning of the Government.
The Chief Minister also directed the National Informatics Centre (NIC) and the Department of Digital Technologies and Governance to speed up work on various digital modules to make revenue services more efficient and people-friendly. He instructed that a digitally signed Jamabandi module be developed within 10 days, so that people do not have to visit Patwarkhanas to get the ‘Fard’ (copy of land records). He also directed that an online, paperless revenue court management system be prepared within 15 days. This will allow people to file writ petitions online and receive summons and updates digitally, making the process faster and more transparent, he added.
The Chief Minister further asked the NIC to develop an online mutation module within 15 days, enabling faster mutation registration and linking it directly with Jamabandi records. To ensure that people get the full benefit of these digital services, Sh. Sukhu directed Deputy Commissioners to actively implement all these initiatives at the ground level.
