Chandigarh, Jul 27 (PTI) The Haryana government has launched an online system that will allow people to apply and obtain digitally certified copies of land records, making land-related services faster, transparent and paperless.
The Department of Revenue and Disaster Management has operationalised the new module on the Revenue Haryana Portal, enabling citizens to access certified land records through a simple online process.
Instructions have been issued to all divisional commissioners and deputy commissioners to implement the system uniformly across the state, Financial Commissioner, Revenue and Disaster Management Department, Sumita Misra said on Monday.
To ensure seamless execution, the department has also prepared a Standard Operating Procedure (SOP) for revenue officials and a detailed user manual for citizens with step-by-step guidance, she said.
Explaining the process, Misra said applicants can log in to the portal using their registered mobile number through OTP authentication and submit applications by selecting the required document and entering details such as district, tehsil and village.
Every application will generate a unique tracking ID and be forwarded electronically to the patwari or revenue official concerned for verification.
Once the application is approved and the prescribed fee is paid online, the digitally certified document will be generated automatically and made available for download from the applicant’s dashboard, she said.
A uniform fee of Rs 100 will be charged for certified copies of Mutation, registered sale deed and ‘Fard Badr’, irrespective of the length of the document.
For ‘Jamabandi’, a fee of Rs 100 will be applicable for the first 10 pages, while an additional Rs 5 per page will be charged for every page thereafter. The prescribed fee can be paid online, after which the digitally certified document will be made available for download through the applicant’s dashboard.
A mutation is part of the process to transfer ownership of a piece of land. ‘Jamabandi’ is land record document. Fard Badar refers to the correction or modification of land revenue records to rectify errors or update ownership details.
Misra said the initiative is expected to significantly reduce the need for repeated visits to tehsil offices, minimise delays in obtaining land records and improve transparency through an end-to-end digital workflow. The online system will also strengthen accountability by maintaining a complete electronic trail of every application and approval, she said.
To ensure data accuracy, responsibility for the correctness of uploaded records has been fixed on the patwari or revenue official concerned. Any correction required after uploading will be processed only through the prescribed official procedure. PTI SUN MNK MNK
