The SVAMITVA scheme in Madhya Pradesh has only registered 4,000 properties so far, falling short of its ambitious target of nearly 50 lakh registrations. Patwaris, who were on strike since the scheme's launch, have resumed work following assurances from the Chief Minister and Deputy Chief Minister. The patwaris had refused to work due to fears of legal repercussions if they faced challenges to the registrations.
