Mangaluru, Jun 5: Revenue officials in Dakshina Kannada have been urged to clear files on time instead of causing inconveniences to the people.
Pramod Madhwaraj, Udupi MLA and parliamentary secretary to the revenue minister, who attended a review meeting of revenue officials of the district here on Saturday said that land records should be made up to date.
Mr Madhwaraj fixed deadline for officials to clear files related to issuance of Record of Rights, Tenancy and Crop Inspection (RTC) or pahani, corrections in RTC and other works related to land records. He also warned officials of filing criminal cases if files are found missing in the department.
"No files related to correction in RTC should be pending for more than six months. There are 978 cases related to correction in RTC pertaining to government land in Dakshina Kannada district. There are 2,499 cases related to correction in RTC pertaining to non-government land," he said.
Under the Urban Property Ownership Records (UPOR) project, the process of survey and measurement has been completed in 1,43,387 properties in the city. UPOR cards have been distributed to 15,500 property owners in the city. Officials have informed that there is a shortage of surveyors and inquiry officers in the revenue department. Hence, the process of survey under UPOR is being delayed, he said, adding that the matter will be discussed with revenue minister V Srinivas Prasad.
On regularization of encroached government land, Pramod said the revenue department has received a total of 56,000 applications under 94C from rural areas in the district.
Meanwhile, 4,036 applications are pending under 94CC scheme in Mangaluru city limits, he said.
