CM instructs officials to complete B Khata process on war footing

BENGALURU

Chief Minister Siddaramaiah has issued a stern warning to the officials, saying, be careful not to cause any harassment or unnecessary delay to the common people in mutation and land conversion cases. He held a Revenue Department progress review meeting at Home Office Krishna on Wednesday. 

When our government came to power, there were over 10,000 cases that were past due. Now, only 369 cases are in the Tahsildar courts, Revenue Minister Krishna Byre Gowda explained to the Chief Minister along with the documents.

 Of the cases pending in Deputy Commissioner courts for decades, 36 percent have been disposed of in just one year, he said.

The Chief Minister then instructed Minister Krishna Byre Gowda, merely disposing of quantity is not enough, only disposing of quality will put a brake on appeals. Pay more attention in this direction.

 It is a good thing that the account change process is being done within a day in 65 percent of cases. This has been made possible through auto mutation. The entire land conversion process should be completed within a month. The act has been amended so that land conversion is not required again once a master plan is in place. An order in this regard should be issued as soon as possible,  the Chief Minister said.

The master plan in urban areas should be updated from time to time. Be careful not to cause any harassment or unnecessary delay to the common people in cases of mutation and land conversion," he directed the officials.

 A master plan should be prepared as soon as possible. Cases should be disposed of on priority in the revenue courts. There should be no room for delay. Cases should be disposed of in the Tahsildar courts within 3 months, the Chief Minister said.
