Mint Explainer | What India’s latest land-records push aims to change
The Centre’s latest land-records push moves beyond digitization to integrate ownership records, maps, registrations and revenue courts into a single digital ecosystem.
India's Government has launched a new initiative to modernize the country's land records system. The Digital India Land Records Modernisation Programme (DILRMP) 3.0, introduced on September 10th, aims to connect various land-related databases, maps, and court records into a single, interoperable digital system. This initiative, spearheaded by the Centre, seeks to overhaul India's land record management process, going beyond mere digitization.
Vijay C. Roy, a journalist with over two decades of experience, reports on the program. His coverage focuses on agriculture, food processing, climate change policies, and their impact on different stakeholders. The program's operational guidelines call for a comprehensive digital ecosystem, integrating land records, registration databases, cadastral maps, and revenue courts.
