Bhu Bharati portal not fully operational yet

A major problem in land transactions is said to be mismatch in the extent of lands owned by farmers on the ground and the entries mentioned in records

Bhu Bharati portal not fully operational yet

The Bhu Bharati portal, a platform designed to streamline land management in Telangana, has yet to become fully operational, almost a year after the state government issued a gazette notification for the Telangana Bhu Bharati Act, 2025. While the National Informatics Centre (NIC) is responsible for developing the new portal, technical issues, including server crashes due to insufficient transaction handling capacity, persist.

Despite resolving some of the earlier problems like the inability to submit multiple grievances in a single application, the system continues to face challenges. This is a stark contrast to previous land-related portals like Dharani, which also faced numerous issues. Moreover, problems related to the mismatch between the actual extent of land owned by farmers and the records remain unresolved, causing inconvenience to landowners and revenue officials alike.

The government's reliance on the previous Dharani software with modifications has not entirely resolved the issues, highlighting the complexity of the task.
