National Land Records Modernization Programme(NLRMP)-

2008

The Cabinet has approved the proposal of the Department of Land Resources

, Ministry of Rural Development, Government of India to merge the two existing

Centrally-sponsored schemes of Computerization of Land Records (CLR) and

Strengthening of Revenue Administration & Updating of Land Records (SRA&ULR)

and to replace them with a modified Centrally-sponsored scheme in the shape of the

National Land Records Modernization Programme (NLRMP), with the ultimate goal

of ushering in the system of conclusive titles with title guarantee in the country.

Current status of land records management in India

2. Land is a State subject in the Constitution, and the systems of land records

management vary from State to State, often even within a State, depending upon

their historical evolution and local traditions. Although these systems are diverse in

form, they have an underlying unity of themes and objectives and they also suffer

from a largely common set of problems.

2.1 Several departments are involved in managing land records in most of the

States, and the citizen has to approach 3 to 4, or even more, agencies for complete

land records, e.g., Revenue Department for textual records and mutations; Survey &

Settlement (or Consolidation) Department for the maps; Registration Department for

verification of encumbrances and registration of transfer, mortgage, etc.; the

Panchayats (in some States, for mutation), and the municipal authorities (for urban

land records), leading to waste of time, exposure to rent seeking, and harassment.

2.2 These departments work in a somewhat stand-alone manner, and updating of

records by any one of them makes the records of the others outdated. Thus, the

8/13/2019 NLRMP-2008

2/24

records are almost always outdated and dont reflect the ground reality. Also, there is

no integration of textual and spatial records, making it difficult to give maps-to-scale

with the records of rights (RoRs).

2.3 The most important activity for updating the records, i.e., survey has been

neglected by most of the States. Original survey for cadastral mapping has not taken

place in many parts of the country. Also, the earlier technology of lattha and chains

for survey is cumbersome, painfully time-taking and costly, and there is need for

adopting modern technology across the country.

2.4 Further, the Registration Act, 1908 provides for registration of deeds and

documents, not titles. Merely the transaction is recorded, and the transfer of

ownership title remains presumptive only. Also, there is significant time lag between

registration and mutation, giving rise to scope of fraudulent transactions in land,

disputes, etc.

International experiences: The system of conclusive titles

3. Problems in land records management have been faced in other countries also,

but respite has come through introducing the system of conclusive titles, also

popularly known as the Torrens system. Australia, New Zealand, the UK,

Switzerland, Canada, the USA, Singapore, and also developing countries such as

Kenya, Malaysia, etc. have successfully introduced this system.

3.1 Kenya is a case in point. The British applied the Indian Registration Act, 1908 as

it was, to Kenya. But, after its Independence, Kenya amended the Act and

introduced the Torrens system.

3.2 Puducherry is an example of the system of conclusive titles from within India

8/13/2019 NLRMP-2008

3/24

itself. The French introduced the Torrens system there. However, after

Independence, Pondicherry had to regress from conclusive titles to the presumptive

titles system prevalent in India due to the provisions of the Registration Act, 1908.

3.3 The system of conclusive titles is based on 4 basic principles: (i) a single agency

to handle land records (including the maintenance and updating of the textual

records, maps, survey and settlement operations, registration of immovable property

mutations, etc.); (ii) the mirror principle, which states that, at any given moment, the

land records mirror the ground reality; (iii) the curtain principle, which refers to the

fact that the record of title is a true depiction of the ownership status, mutation is

automatic following registration, there is no need of probing into past title

transactions, and title is a conclusive proof of ownership; and (iv) title insurance,

which refers to the fact that the title is guaranteed for its correctness and the party

concerned is indemnified against any loss arising because of inaccuracy in this

regard. At the moment, land records in India dont reflect any of these principles.

Earlier initiatives of the Department of Land Resources (DoLR) for modernization of

land records in India

4. Following a decision in the Conference of the State Revenue Ministers in 1985,

the Government of India had initiated two Centrally-sponsored schemes

Strengthening of Revenue Administration & Updating of Land Records (SRA&ULR)

and Computerization of Land Records (CLR).

Strengthening of Revenue Administration & Updating of Land Records

(SRA&ULR)

4.1 The scheme of SRA&ULR was launched in 1987-88 to help the States and UTs

in updating and maintaining the land records, setting up and strengthening of the

survey and settlement organizations and the survey training infrastructure,

8/13/2019 NLRMP-2008

4/24

modernization of the survey & settlement operations, and strengthening of the

revenue machinery.

4.2 Funding under the SRA&ULR scheme has been on 50:50 cost-sharing basis

between the Centre and the States. The UTs are provided 100% Central assistance.

The list of items covered under the scheme of SRA&ULR is at Annexure I. The

financial and physical progresses under the scheme are indicated at Annexure II & III

respectively.

Computerization of Land Records (CLR)

4.3 The CLR scheme was launched in 1988-89 with pilot projects in 8 districts and

was subsequently extended to cover the rest of the country. The main objective of

the scheme was to ensure that the landowners get computerized copies of the RoRs

on demand. Under this scheme, 100% financial assistance has been provided to the

States and UTs. A list of activities covered under the CLR scheme is at Annexure IV.

The financial and physical progresses under this scheme are indicated at Annexure

V and VI respectively. The status of computerization of land records in the States

and UTs, as assessed through a detailed sizing exercise, is given in a statement at

Annexure

VII.

Disadvantages of the existing schemes and the need for modifying them

4.5 The activities included in the schemes of CLR and SRA&ULR were basically

meant for strengthening of revenue administration, but also included activities that

contribute to conclusive titling. The choice of activities was left to the States and UTs,

most of whom chose activities that strengthen revenue administration but not

8/13/2019 NLRMP-2008

5/24

necessarily helped in moving towards conclusive titling. For example, in many years,

as much as 90% of the funds released to the States/UTs under the SRA&ULR

scheme were utilized for construction activities, while non-updated records were

being computerized and scanned under the CLR. Also, this hamper-of-activities

approach led to eddying; each activity was a goal in itself rather than a step in the

systematic, ladder-like approach towards reaching the stage of conclusive titling.

4.6 The way the schemes were framed, no timeframe for achieving the goal of

conclusive titles can be set. Technology options for survey were not indicated and

the work remained neglected in most of the States. Neither was the system of

monitoring emphatically spelt out, nor was the exit mode defined in either of the

existing schemes. Further, both the schemes of CLR and SRA&ULR excluded

interconnectivity, geographic information system (GIS) mapping, connectivity with

banks and treasuries, and Registration the last of which is a vital link in updating

the land records.

Further initiatives

5. The National Common Minimum Programme (NCMP) envisages that Revenue

administration will be thoroughly modernized and clear land titles will be established.

Following up on this mandate, an earlier version of the present scheme was

developed by the DoLR under the name Comprehensive Modernization of Land

Records (CMLR).

5.1 A Committee under the Secretary, RD was constituted to consider the modern

survey technology options and their cost and time estimates. After a series of

meetings with the technical agencies including the National Remote Sensing Agency

8/13/2019 NLRMP-2008

6/24

(NRSA), National Informatics Centre (NIC), Survey of India, and a number of States,

the Committee narrowed down the options to the following three, but left the choice

to the States:

a) Pure ground method using electronic total station

(ETS) and global positioning system (GPS); b)

Hybrid method using aerial photography and

ground truthing by ETS and GPS; and c) High-

resolution satellite imagery (HRSI) and ground

truthing by ETS

and GPS. The unit costs for the first two options are the same, but the hybrid

methodology is preferable because it saves time significantly. The HRSI option may

not be suitable for original cadastral surveys because of its wider margin of error.

5.2 Most significantly, a decision was taken to make conclusive titling as per the

Torrens system as the ultimate goal of the scheme. The technologies, costs and time

estimates of the components of the scheme were finalized, based on field

experiences of the States and technical agencies. The need was felt for a

comprehensive modernization scheme integrating Land Records and Registration.

Accordingly, the CMLR proposal was further enhanced in the shape of the National

Land Records Modernization Programme (NLRMP).

Components and activities under the NLRMP.

6. The following is an outline of the components and activities to be taken up under

the NLRMP:

I. Computerization of land records a) Data entry/re-entry/data conversion of

8/13/2019 NLRMP-2008

7/24

all textual records

including mutation records and other land attributes data b) Digitization

of cadastral maps c) Integration of textual and spatial data d) Tehsil, sub-

division/district data centers e) State-level data centres f) Inter-connectivity

among revenue offices

II. Survey/resurvey and updating of the survey & settlement records (including

ground control network and ground truthing) using the following modern

technology options:

a) Pure ground method using electronic total station (ETS)

and global positioning system (GPS); or b) Hybrid

methodology using aerial photography and ground

truthing by ETS and GPS; or c) High Resolution

Satellite Imagery (HRSI) and ground truthing by ETS

and GPS.

III. Computerization of Registration a) Computerization of the sub-registrars

offices (SROs) b) Data entry of valuation details c) Data entry of legacy

encumbrance data d) Scanning & preservation of old documents e)

Connectivity to SROs with revenue officesIV. Modern record rooms/land records management centres at

tehsil/taluk/circle/block levelV. Training & capacity building a) Training, workshops, etc. b)

Strengthening of the Survey and Revenue training institutes

VI. Core GIS

a) Village index base maps from satellite imagery, for creating the core

GIS;

8/13/2019 NLRMP-2008

8/24

b) Integration of three layers of data: (i) Spatial data from aerial

photograph or high-resolution satellite imagery; (ii) Survey of India and

Forest Survey of India maps; and (iii) Cadastral maps from revenue

records.

VII. Legal changes a) Amendments to the Registration Act, 1908; b)

Amendments to the State Stamp Acts; c) Other legal changes; and d)

Model law for conclusive titling.

VIII. Programme management a) Programme Sanctioning & Monitoring

Committee in the DoLR; b) Core Technical Advisory Group in the DoLR

and the States/UTs c) Programme Management Unit (PMU) in the DoLR

and the

States/UTs d) Information, education and communication (IEC)

activities e) Evaluation

6.1 All the activities have been framed in the form of two kinds of ladders primary

and secondary; the primary ladder covers activities leading to conclusive titling, and

the secondary ladder covers activities that merely strengthen the revenue

administration. It is proposed to give priority to the primary activities through

budgetary support. A diagrammatic depiction of the two kinds of ladders is provided

at Annexure VIII. The States/UTs shall be required to follow the activities in this

pattern and to carry out the process re-engineering involved. Fund releases to the

States/UTs will be conditional upon the States/UTs signing the MoU to this effect

with the DoLR.

6.2 In order to make the programme time-bound, it is proposed to take the district as

8/13/2019 NLRMP-2008

9/24

the unit for completion of all primary activities. In each State and UT, it is proposed to

begin with 1 or 2 districts, then to scale up to 3-4 districts per State/UT, and to cover

the entire country by the 12

th

Plan period. However, the States/UTs which wish to

complete the work earlier can do so. They can also go for a public-private

partnership (PPP) model in the non-sensitive districts.

6.3 The DoLR have commissioned a study for the North-Eastern (NE) States, to be

conducted by the Centre for Rural Studies, Lal Bahadur Shastri National Academy of

Administration (LBSNAA), Mussoorie, since the land revenue systems of the NE

States differ substantially from the rest of the country.

Expected outcomes of the NLRMP

7. The major focus of the programme would be on providing citizen services, as

outlined below. The long-term goal would be to usher in the system of conclusive

titles with title guarantee in the country. In addition, the data and the conclusive titles

would be linked to the development process, such as credit institutions, disaster

management, land acquisition and rehabilitation & resettlement, land use planning,

cropping pattern and food security, and other secondary data such as issue of

various certificates, etc.

Besides the citizen and the govt., the conclusive titles and secondary data will be of

immense use to the private stakeholders.

7.1 Citizen services and benefits

i) Real-time records will be available to the citizen.

ii) Since the records will be placed on the websites with proper

security IDs, property owners will have free access to their

8/13/2019 NLRMP-2008

10/24

records while maintaining confidentiality.

iii) Free accessibility to the records will reduce interface between the

citizen and the Government functionaries, thereby reducing rent

seeking and harassment.

iv) Public-private partnership (PPP) mode of service delivery will

further reduce citizen interface with Govt. machinery, while

adding to the convenience.

v) Abolition of stamp papers and payment of stamp duty and

registration fees through banks, etc. will also reduce interface

with the Registration machinery.

vi) With the use of IT inter linkages, the time for obtaining RoRs, etc.

will be drastically reduced.

vii) The single-window serviceor

the web-enabled

anytime-

anywhere access will save the citizen time and effort in

obtaining RoRs, etc.

viii) Automatic and automated mutations will significantly reduce the

scope of fraudulent property deals.

Page 11 of 30

ix) Conclusive titling will also significantly reduce litigation.

x) These records will be tamper-proof.

xi) This method will permit e-linkages to credit facilities.

xii) Market value information will be available on the website to the

citizen. xiii) Certificates based on land data (e.g.,

8/13/2019 NLRMP-2008

11/24

domicile, caste, income, etc.) will be available to the

citizen through computers. xiv) Information on eligibility

for Government programmes will be available, based on

the data. xv) Issuance of land passbooks with relevant

information will be facilitated.

8. Approved funding pattern(a) 100% Central funding for computerization of land records including

data entry/re-entry/data conversion, digitization of cadastral maps and integration oftextual and spatial data, tehsil/sub-division/district data centres, States/UT-level data

centres, inter-connectivity among the revenue offices, training and capacity buildingincluding strengthening of the revenue and survey training institutions, village indexbase maps and core GIS, legal changes and programme management;

(b) 50:50 cost-sharing between the Centre and the States forsurvey/resurvey and updating of survey and settlement records including groundcontrol network and ground truthing, and modern record

rooms/land records management centres at the tehsil/taluka/circle/block level;(c) 25:75 cost-sharing between the Centre and the States for

computerization of registration, scanning and preservation of legacy mutationrecords, and providing connectivity to the sub-registrars offices with the revenueoffices; and

(d) For the UTs, 100% Central funding for the NLRMP.
