Digital Revolution in Himachal Pradesh: Revolutionizing Revenue Records

Himachal Pradesh's Revenue Lok Adalats have successfully resolved over 4 lakh grievances in two-and-a-half years, according to a state government spokesperson. The initiative emphasizes bringing redressal closer to people's homes through localized forums at tehsil and sub-tehsil levels, effectively addressing revenue-related issues.

The revenue department has achieved significant milestones, executing over 3 lakh mutations, thousands of partitions, and demarcations. Embracing technological advances, 90% of village maps are now on the Bhu-Naksha portal, and essential records like Bhu-Aadhar and land accounts are increasingly linked with Aadhaar numbers for better management.

Further strides include the amendment of the Himachal Pradesh Land Revenue Act, 1954, fostering a paperless land registration system called 'My Deed,' and introducing e-Rojnamacha for better governance. These new measures aim to expedite case handling, simplify record formats, and enhance efficiency in monitoring field operations.
