Terming YSR Jagananna Saswata Bhoo Hakku and Bhoo Raksha scheme as great reform and revolutionary step, he said after proper and scientific resurvey title deeds will be handed over to rightful owners.
Chief Minister who also inaugurated the registration process in 37 villages of Guntur district, said the process would be completed in 11,501 villages by December 2022. He said in the first phase, resurvey was completed in 51 villages.
He said that the resurvey would ensure that there would be no scope for any future litigation and the land deals can be carried out at the village level with the implementation of the scheme.
"The reforms had to be taken up as 90 percent of the disputes are civil litigations and there are complaints of tampering with land records and the boundaries are not well marked. These problems could be solved if the land markings were done scientifically and an identification number is given to all landholders," he added.
