Chandigarh, July 1 – Haryana Financial Commissioner Revenue and Disaster Management Department, Dr. Sumita Misra, stated that the State Government is set to launch a new digital portal to simplify and enhance transparency in the land demarcation process. This initiative is a key part of Chief Minister, Sh. Nayab Singh Saini’s ‘Digital Haryana’ vision and ongoing land governance reforms.
After presiding over the review meeting with officers of Revenue and Disaster Management Department, Dr. Sumita Misra informed that this citizen-centric portal aims to modernize and digitize land demarcation, addressing traditional delays and procedural hurdles. It will allow owners of agricultural, residential, or commercial land to submit their demarcation grievances online, eliminating the need for multiple visits to government revenue offices and reducing red tape.
Dr. Misra stated that the demarcation applications would be processed in a time bound manner, which will significantly streamline the process and strengthen the public confidence in the government procedure. The portal will integrate with the Revenue Department’s existing digital land records system and leverage Geographic Information System (GIS) technology for precise, real-time boundary demarcation. This integration will provide access to updated demarcation maps, revenue estate records, and historical data, minimizing ambiguities and boundary disputes. Digital rovers will replace traditional manual tools to ensure accuracy.
The portal will feature a grievance tracking mechanism, allowing users to monitor their complaint’s status from submission to resolution. This commitment to a defined resolution timeframe is expected to enhance accountability and public confidence in Haryana’s land administration system.
The meeting was attended by Director, Consolidation of Land Holdings & Land Records, Sh. Yash Pal, Revenue & Disaster Management Department, Sh. Ravi Prakash Gupta, Special Secretary, Revenue & Disaster Management Department, Sh. Rahul Hooda, Secretary, Special Secretary, Revenue & Disaster Management Department, Sh. Kamlesh Kumar Bhadoo.
