Rural Development Minister Giriraj Singh has said that digitisation of land records and registration is expected to improve the Gross domestic product (GDP) of the country by about 1.5 per cent.
He emphasized that saturation of the digitisation process of land records and registration will help mitigate the huge pendency of court cases involving land disputes. He said it will also help in improving the ranking of the country in terms of ease of doing business.
Stressing on the importance of emerging technologies such as blockchain and CORS in the modernisation process of land management, he said this will go a long way in achieving the objectives of the government under 'Gatishakti'. He also highlighted the importance of new initiatives of the government for providing land records in multiple languages to enhance ease of doing business.
