RELIS- REvenue Land Information System

MIS developed as part of N.L.R.M.P

(National Land Records Modernization

Programme) towards linking Registration and

Revenue Departments to achieve online / real-

time mutation (Transfer of Registry /

Pokkuvaravu) through more Common Service

Centres like Akshaya and to issue digitally

signed Bhoorekha [RoR] “Any Time Any Where”

1. This ensures transparency in all land transactions.2.       This ensures “anytime and anywhere” transaction of lands at

Revenue offices3.       This will check transaction of Government lands.4.       The land holder can get Bhoorekha [RoR] from any of the Akshaya Common Service centres in Kerala.5.       It curbs the entire corruption associated with land transactions.6.       Government will get more income as it will be linked to fair value

of land.7.       The suspicious land transactions in the sensitive areas would be

curbed.8.       The Land Reforms Act can be implemented in a more

meaningful manner.9.       The transfer of registry is assured promptly and swiftly on FIFO

[First In First Out] principles.10. It is a great leap towards assured Citizen Services11. Better credit flow under assured land records.

Advantages of ReLIS for the Government & Advantages of ReLIS for the Government & the Publicthe Public

HOW A PERSON DERIVES LAND TITLE NOW ?

THROUGH A REGISTERED DEED ? NOSection 21 & 22 of Registration Act,1908:Registering Officer can register all documents on land provided sufficient stamp is affixed and execution of deeds with or without transfer of registry afterwards.

THROUGH TRANSFER OF REGISTRY ? NOTransfer of Registry Rules,1966: Even though Transfer of Registry [Pokkuvaravu] is effected it does not confer absolute indefeasible title to a person

THROUGH LAND ASSIGNMENT ? NOKerala Land Assignment Act,1960: All the Rules framed under this assign only conditional pattayams

The only way is through SETTLEMENT
