NLRMP Main Objectives

• usher in a system of updated land records

• automated and automatic mutation

• integration between textual and spatial records

• replace the present deeds registration and presumptive title system with that of conclusive titling with title guarantee

The NLRMP has three major components:

• Computerization of land record

• Survey/ re-survey

• Computerization of Registration


… a system of updated land records

• The central objective of NLRMP is not just

fresh cadastral surveys

• Land records in almost all the states are not

up-to-date

• Given that the land records are not in

continuous maintenance in most of the states

• To meet the first objective,

• land records should be made up-to-date at

one instance of time and

• be kept under continuous maintenance from

then on


… a system of updated land records

• Globally speaking, land records comprise of:

• Graphical sketches depicting accurately the extent and boundaries of all parcels

• An index map of the entire administrative unit

• A textual record comprising of the owners name, occupier/ enjoyer’s name, approximate area, unique ID number of the parcel

• The graphical records and the textual records should be individually correct and up-to-date and also be connected with each other properly to constitute the complete title cadastre

• “modernisation” in the program refers to employment of appropriate technology that will ensure this integration


Mutation

• Mutation is the process of recording and registering change of ownership and other changes in the statutory records

• Change of ownership and other changes on the ground can occur in several ways, where transaction in land is only one of them

• All such sources of change, as also the processes through which such changes occur, are to be fully understood and captured

• The complete “as-is” business processes of the participating organisations should be understood, reengineered and rendered amenable for process automation

• GIS technology can then be embedded into this IT framework, so that the graphical data is simultaneously updated along with the textual title record, during mutation.


Conclusive title

• Weakness of the present land records management system is the lack of connectivity between the processes of the Registration and Revenue Departments.

• In reality, registration does not confer title to the buyer;

• It is actually the mutation of the change of title in the revenue records that validates the registration process

• Every registration process – rather any process whatsoever by which ownership changes – should be immediately followed by mutation

However, registration is carried out by the Department of Stamps and Registration, whereas mutation is carried out by the Revenue Dept.

…


… Conclusive title

• Integration of the business processes of these Departments takes us one step closer to the land title security regime.

• There may be simpler methods to impart a semblance of “conclusiveness” to the land titles;

• creation of an up-to-date land records database integrating textual and graphical record,

• Business process integration between Revenue, Survey and Registration Departments and

• Tweaking a few Departmental procedures to ensure proper consistency in their day-to-day implementation across the Departments.


Appropriate technologies

Aerial, field survey and HRSI – what are the criteria for appropriateness?

If accuracy is the only criterion, field survey is the best; but, is it scalable?

Is aerial photography the only alternative, for survey of large tracts?

How accurate is HRSI method? … …

What is the real accuracy required?

Are cost and time important considerations?


Departmental processes

Essential processes like boundary demarcation, title

enquiry, adjudication, etc are time tested and should be

preserved as such to sustain public confidence.

Technology should render itself amenable for

incorporation into these essential processes rather than

being end-all-be-all.

Technology is no panacea. Depts should shed their

diffidence and refrain from “throwing-away-the-baby-

with-bathwater”


Fresh survey vs updating existing record

Long-standing debate over condition of land records and

their utility

Several states preferring fresh surveys over updating

Framework in tact in major parts of several states, which

can be improved upon

Existing records enjoy acceptance by public.

Even in litigation-ridden peri-urban areas, disputed parcels

do not exceed 10%

Fresh surveys, the only solution?


Validation before modernization

Erstwhile CLR – a case in point

Correctness of data not considered as a pre-requisite

Result – digitized parcel data could not be put to routine maintenance

Fresh across-the-board surveys may not be the only plausible solution

No computerization before validation – graphical or textual

Costly re-surveys may be avoidable in many areas

Excellent village boundary framework is mandatory


The principle of precedence of boundary over extent

In most disputes, areas and extents are not the only

contention

Disputes are often caused by location, unique id, title etc.

Boundary is objective; area subjective

Correct boundary identification makes measurement accuracy

less critical

Accurate measurement alone does not guarantee correct

boundary


Correctness vs accuracy

If boundary is correctly identified, measurement is

redundant

Measurement accuracy is a function of technology

Technology does not guarantee correct identification

Boundary demarcation – essential pre-requisite to

measurement survey

Required measurement accuracy can be chosen based on

affordability


Capacity building

Cadastral surveys – domain of Govt. for times immemorial

Companies do not have adequate comprehension of

legal cadastre

Private surveyors have technology awareness, no domain

knowledge

Lack of capacity in private sector – a serious limitation

Large scale capacity building by state LR Depts. is the

only solution


Approval process

On the other hand, Departmental surveyors are not

exposed to technology

No exposure to modern survey instruments and computer

processing

No knowledge of digital cadastre and GIS

Several projects suffering because of delayed and often

incorrect approval process

Large scale staff training is mandatory for success of

projects


Infotech in NLRMP

Pre project phase - Consulting, pre project support, NLRMP proposal preparation and funding support – Infotech has rich domain experience

Project execution phase –

• Undertake digitization of the existing village maps, parcel sketches and RoR documents for creation of a comprehensive GIS – we have the entire life-cycle mapped in our facility at Hyderabad

• Undertake comprehensive cadastral surveys with appropriate technology and/ or combinations thereof.

• Undertake business process integration and automation in the Depts. involved, leading to creation of the essential framework for land title security

• Development of necessary software for management of land information, applications, computerization of revenue and registration Depts., delivery to the public on the web etc.

• Various engagement options – nomination, Consultancy, project management, competitive bidding and participatory modes


UPOR – KLR - Project Details

Public Private Partnership (PPP) Model Project

Recovery through User charges

Sharing of investment

Partial funding by Department for project implementation

Remaining Investment by Vendor during project

implementation and maintenance period

Project Period

270 days for Application Development and Implementation

6 years Services & Maintenance

Present Implementation in 5 cities, services, expandable to 10 more cities in near future.


To create a robust system of Urban Property Ownership Records for

every property which accurately record both for the spatial

characteristics of the property as well as record of rights data.

This property record will serve as a trusted record for all

transactions.

This property record created through this project will evidence

property ownership for all regulatory and legal purpose.

The property record over the years will continue to remain current

and accurate i.e. will not become obsolete or inaccurate.

All property record related transactions and services will be fulfilled

through this project.
