Chandigarh, Nov 21 (IANS) In an achievement signaling a new era of transparent and citizen-centric governance, Haryana has crossed 10,450 paperless property registrations in the first 21 days of its launch.
The state’s digital land-registry system on Friday created a new record by processing 1,659 registrations without requiring a single sheet of paper.
Describing it as “not just digitisation, but a transformation”, Financial Commissioner (Revenue) Sumita Mishra said the system has been significantly strengthened through advanced software, better workflows.
From November 1 to 21, residents booked 9,365 online appointments for property registration, taking the total to 10,450 appointments since the launch of the paperless system.
Of these, 8,338 works have been approved during the three-week period, taking the total number of approved works to 9,260.
He said the system is currently processing an average of around 1,500 tasks per day, while the single-day record of 1,659 registrations highlights the improved capacity and operational stability of the platform.
Mishra said the officer-side features on the portal have also been upgraded.
He said that Tehsildars can now return tokens directly through their login and appointment scheduling has become easier in all districts.
He said several issues affecting stamp duty calculations, token deduction and document flow have already been resolved.
“The system will now not deduct Rs 503 in cases of incorrect token until the token is fully validated, thereby saving citizens from unnecessary financial loss,” he said.
Mishra emphasized that the success of the initiative comes from the regular feedback received from Registrars, Sub-Registrar and grassroots level staff.
He said his suggestions have directly shaped iterative improvements to the platform.
One of the major enhancements announced relates to simplifying the second page of the online registration interface – a move aimed at reducing user frictions and streamlining the overall experience.
“Even small technological improvements can make a big difference for citizens, especially when they are completing property transactions that often involve significant financial and emotional stakes,” Mishra said.
