‘Dharani will end graft’
Khammam: Officials and the public welcomed the launch of the Dharani portal by Chief Minister K Chandrashekhar Rao on Thursday.
Many people performed ‘Palabhishekham’ to the portrait of the Chief Minister at several places all over the erstwhile Khammam district expressing their support to the government’s move.
Kothagudem Collector MV Reddy felt that land registrations, mutations and other related transactions would be made simple to carry out. The process would be transparent and quick. The portal is available in Telugu and English languages and is citizen-friendly, he added.
Khammam MBC Committee office-bearer Shaik Shakeena termed the launch a historic move. No other State or the Chief Minister had come up with such a novel idea to simplify land purchase-related processes.
Dharani would end corruption in the Revenue Department and eliminate the role of middlemen, she added.
Maintenance of land records made easy: Tahsildars
Warangal: The launch of Dharani was welcomed by all sections of society in Warangal.
Bhimadevarapalli Tahsildar Uma Rani said: “The Dharani website will help resolve all the disputes as the old records were set right. On the other hand, the registration of agricultural land and mutation will become easy and transparent. People must thank Chief Minister K Chandrashekhar Rao for bringing in the new Act and the portal for their benefit. Revenue officials are also happy as it would help them maintain the files online without much trouble.”
Khazipet Tahsildhar Kiran said: “Previously, people who bought land and other properties used to go to the registration office and face troubles. But they can now register their land at the Tahsildar office itself. It will bring much relief to farmers. Records of rights relating to lands will now be maintained in the electronic form in the Telangana Land Records Management System for ensuring hassle-free revenue administration.”
Munigala Adinarayana Reddy, a farmer from Nallabelli of Warangal Rural district, said: “Dharani will check corruption. Everyone knows that the staff of the sub-registrar office used to collect bribes to register documents in the past. The portal will also make land mutation an easy affair and this will also allow people to access land records online. We are happy that the portal has been launched.”
