The Chief Secretary said that coordination should be established with all relevant stakeholders to complete the virtual registration of land purchases and sales.
He directed that a provision should be made in the concerned application/portal that all the documents related to purchase and sale of land which have to be shared among various stakeholders, departments, bodies and agencies should be shared quickly on auto mode and through paperless process.
He said that completion of this project will bring transparency in the purchase and sale of land, uniform and correct land records will be shared among various departments, bodies, agencies and stakeholders and this will also reduce disputes related to the purchase and sale of land.
On the occasion, officials informed him that the relevant application has been created and will be slightly modified in accordance with the guidance received today. After that, the tendering process for its infrastructure will begin.
