New Delhi: Under the Digital India Land Records Modernization Programme, the Department of Land Records (DoLR) is actively striving for the widespread computerization of land records and the digitalization of cadastral maps to benefit citizens. At the national level, significant progress has been achieved, with computerization of Record of Rights and Registration Offices standing at an impressive 94% as of August 8th, 2023. Furthermore, the digitization of maps across the country has reached a commendable 76%.
The Department of Land Resources (DoLR) is actively assigning Bhu Aadhar or Unique Land Parcel Identification Number to all Land Parcels. In just one year, approximately 9 crore land parcels have been successfully assigned Bhu Aadhar. Moreover, the registration process has evolved from manual to e- Registration, ensuring a smoother and more efficient experience for all stakeholders involved.
The implementation of the Watershed component of the Pradhan Mantri Krishi Sinchayee Yojana (WDC- PMKSY) has significantly contributed to the expansion of the economy and the promotion of capital formation. This initiative has played a crucial role in the development of rainfed and degraded areas. Notably, out of the 97 million hectares of degraded land, approximately 29 million hectares have been successfully covered under Watershed projects, making it one of the largest campaigns on a global scale.
To raise awareness among the public about these programs, the Department has devised a Media Plan set to launch on August 11th, 2023. The initial phase of the Campaign will encompass Outdoor Media, social media, and Bulk SMS components.
Following the first stage launch of the Media Campaign, additional components will be progressively incorporated to ensure comprehensive and targeted coverage.
