Bhopal, Madhya Pradesh: The Swamitva Yojana's rollout is facing a roadblock as patwaris and tehsildars refuse to conduct registries under the scheme until their concerns are addressed. Patwari Association president Upendra Baghel revealed that despite the government's verbal assurances, no official documentation has been provided.
Similarly, the Tehsildar Association has halted registry processes until their demands are met. Patwaris object to being made executors in the scheme, while tehsildars oppose the government deploying them as registry officers. Both groups insist that the government should utilize its registry department exclusively, with no involvement from patwaris or tehsildars.
The revenue department claims they are merely ex officio authorities and confident there will be no legal repercussions. However, patwaris and tehsildars worry that any property disputes stemming from registries could lead to legal troubles. Chief Minister Mohan Yadav convened a meeting on Wednesday with department principal secretary E Rameshkumar to address the deadlock, urging the department to resolve the patwaris' and tehsildars' objections.
