In a bid to reduce land-related disputes, the revenue and land reforms department is all set to unveil a new software that will connect the offices of the sub-registrar with the circle offices to ensure land mutation at the time of registration. CM Nitish Kumar had recently cited land-related disputes as the main reason behind 60% of crimes committed in the state. The software will integrate the registration and mutation process to bring more transparency so that land disputes could be reduced. The revenue and land reforms minister Ram Surat Kumar will formally launch the new system on 31st March, which will come into effect across the state from April 1. With the new system coming into force, complaints related to mutation of land will come to an end. The purpose behind this is to minimize disputes over land/property, which more often than not lead to crimes. However, the facility will be available only for those buyers who purchase land from persons having 'jamabandi' on their names, which means only those who own a piece of land through mutation can sell it. The sellers/buyers will have to fill up mutation forms along with the documents for registration of the land. The forms will be simultaneously forwarded to the circle office from the sub-registrar's office for simultaneous registration and mutation. In the new system, a mutation form will have details of the land, names of the buyer/seller among other relevant information. The copies of the sale/purchase deeds will be sent to the respective circle offices by NIC within hours of the registration. At present, land buyers have to submit online applications for mutation. Moreover, they have to attach copies of the deed of the purchased land with the mutation forms. "This is a cumbersome process, which often delays the mutation," a revenue and land reforms department pointed out.
