Nishapati Nayak,Odishabarta

KORAPUT:The Koraput Sub-Registrar’s Office has issued registration and lease documents for the transfer of land ownership in one day (5 hours). This is the first case in Koraput tehsil. Koraput sub collector Lalit Kumar Kahar handed over land sale documents and leases to Namita Khara, Jharna Bishi, Sachida Nand Nayak, Minati Nayak, Ramakant Nayak, Dillip Kumar Nayak in one day. Koraput Tahsildar Ranjan Kumar Manseth and Additional Tahsildar Sasmita Kumari Jena were present and presented the lease. “Every effort is being made by the Revenue Department to ensure that the person who buys the land does not have to run to the sub-registrar’s office again and again for land deeds,” said Tahsildar Ranjan Kumar Manseth.

In the past, landlords had to travel months and months for land sales documents and leases. However, one day after the Revenue and Disaster Management Department joined the “My Government” program, land acquisition documents were obtained. The government has directed the tehsil to issue property rights (leases) to the people who sell and buy the land within seven days. However, the Koraput tehsil has managed to issue a certificate of ownership to the person who bought the land in five hours.
