Mann, Kejriwal launch ‘Easy Jamabandi Portal' to digitise land services, check graft
Punjab Chief Minister Bhagwant Singh Mann and Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) national convenor Arvind Kejriwal on Thursday launched a digital platform, 'Easy Jamabandi Portal', to provide land-related revenue services online. Addressing a gathering, Mann said, 'Punjab is taking another step to root out corruption from revenue services on which lakhs of people depend on each year.' Delhi's former chief minister Kejriwal said, 'A few days ago, we launched the 'Easy Registry' initiative to simplify property registration. This is part of the same effort to digitise and streamline key services.' They said the Easy Jamabandi Portal would provide five main services like 'Online Intkal' (mutation), 'Rapat Entry' (recording changes due to court orders or loan, 'Fard Badar' (correction of land records), 'Jamabandi layi Subscribe karo' (land record subscription alerts) and 'WhatsApp te Jamabandi' (accessing land records via WhatsApp). According to officials, the portal allows people to obtain a copy of their land record (Jamabandi) by entering details online. 'There is no need to visit a patwari, stand in queues or pay bribes. People will receive a digitally signed copy with a QR code for verification,' Mann said. They said land records for 99 per cent of villages had been digitised, with the rest expected to be covered in two months. About the Online Intkal (mutation) service, Kejriwal stated, 'Around eight lakh mutations take place annually. Earlier, updating ownership after a sale or inheritance meant months of delays. Now, this will be done within 30 days, and updates will be sent via WhatsApp.' Mann said the Rapat Entry system would now operate entirely online. 'Every year, about 2 lakh such entries are made. For court orders, the entry will be completed within a day, and for loans, within seven days,' he said. For Fard Badar, they explained that nearly 60,000 correction requests are made each year. Kejriwal said, 'People can now submit a simple online form with documents. The application will be processed within 15 days, and fees will be paid digitally.' The leaders also introduced a new feature called 'Subscribe to Your Land Records', which is aimed at safeguarding property ownership, especially for NRIs. 'Landowners can subscribe to their records for Rs 500 per year per Khewat. If there is any change or tampering, they will get an instant alert on WhatsApp or email and can raise an objection immediately,' Mann said.

Now, a portal to provide hassle-free land record services in Punjab
Punjab chief minister Bhagwant Singh Mann and Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) national convener Arvind Kejriwal on Thursday launched the Easy Jamabandi portal to provide smooth, hassle-free land record services. The portal provides five main services: Jamabandi via WhatsApp, online intkal (mutation), rapat entry, fard badar (correction of land records) and subscription for land record protection. At the launch event at Guru Nanak Dev University (GNDU) campus, Mann said, 'Punjab is taking yet another historic step to root out corruption from key revenue services that affects lakhs of people. A few days ago, we launched the 'Easy Registry' initiative to make property registrations simpler and transparent, thereby eliminating corruption.' Mann said every year, nearly 40 lakh people visit their patwari or fard centres to obtain land record copies. 'Now, there is no need to visit a patwari, stand in queues, or pay bribes for getting land records as people can simply go to the Easy Jamabandi website, enter their details and get a copy of the Jamabandi for free. This will be digitally signed and have a QR code that anyone can scan to verify the land record,' said the CM. He added that the state government has digitised land records for 99% of the villages in Punjab and that the remaining villages too will be covered in the next two months. Former Delhi CM Kejriwal said the portal will also ensure timely delivery of services. 'Once a person submits a request for mutation on the portal, the mutation will be done within 30 days.' In a feature that will particularly help NRIs, people can pay an annual fee of ₹500 per khewat (landholding record) and get instant alerts via WhatsApp or email on any changes in their land records. 'There have been many instances where land records were altered without the owner's knowledge, and they found out about it years later and then had to endure long legal tussles to get it corrected,' said Kejriwal. With the new feature, landowners will receive an instant alert on their phone after which they can immediately raise an objection online, which will be sent directly to the revenue officer concerned. Mann said people can also avail these services by dialling 1076, or submitting applications at any sewa kendra.

MOHALI : The newly launched Easy Registry system has significantly streamlined the property registration process in Mohali, cutting down wait times and boosting overall efficiency. Introduced on May 27 by Punjab chief minister Bhagwant Singh Mann and Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) convenor Arvind Kejriwal, the system aims to eliminate corruption and provide a hassle-free experience for property owners. According to officials, the Easy Registry system has processed over 4,000 applications within just 15 days, with an average clearance time of two hours. If all documents are ready and pre-approved, the registration process takes less than 10 minutes. Mohali deputy commissioner Komal Mittal said, "The system takes less than 10 minutes for pre-approved applications with complete documentation. Only applications with missing documents or objections are deferred. For all others, the process is completed almost instantly." On average, 266 property registrations are being completed daily under the new system. The district revenue department has received nearly 5,000 applications since its launch and has successfully cleared 80% of them.

The initiative is expected to be implemented across Punjab by Aug 1. Officials and stakeholders have praised the move as a transformative step towards transparent and citizen-friendly administration.

With Mohali launch, Punjab aims to simplify property registration
1 2 Mohali: In a move aimed at eliminating corruption and making property registration a hassle-free exercise, Punjab chief minister Bhagwant Singh Mann on Monday launched an 'Easy Registry' system at the sub-registrar office in Mohali district administrative complex. The initiative, launched in the presence of Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) national convener and former Delhi chief minister Arvind Kejriwal , is set to be rolled out across Punjab by Aug 1. Under the new system, language used in land records will also be simplified. "Terms like jamabandi, khatauni, khasra, and bhulekha—often used to confuse people—have been removed to make the system truly citizen-friendly and simplified in the mother tongue," said CM Mann. Describing the project as "revolutionary", Mann said Easy Registry will give citizens the freedom to choose any sub-registrar office within the district for registering their property. "Now, people will no longer need to visit registry offices or deal with middlemen. Registration can be initiated online, documents can be picked up from the doorstep, and all processes will be completed within 48 hours," he said. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Buy Brass Idols - Handmade Brass Statues for Home & Gifting Luxeartisanship Buy Now Undo Under the new system, the sale deed registration payment can be made through sewa sahayaks, and the submission of documents can also be done through these assistants. Citizens will also have access to online tools like 'Draft my Deed' and 'Calculate my Fees', ensuring transparency, affordability, and independence from private deed writers and touts. Mann emphasized that any undue or irrelevant objection raised by registry officials will be taken seriously. "Such objections will be reviewed by the deputy commissioner, and action will be taken against the responsible officers, including suspension if required," he warned. Kejriwal lauded Punjab govt's initiative, calling it a model for the nation. "Punjab is the first state to roll out such a citizen-focused, transparent, and efficient registry system. This will not only save time and money for citizens, but also bring an end to decades-old corruption networks in tehsils," he said. During his visit to the registry office in Mohali, CM Bhagwant Mann interacted with beneficiaries, even pausing to take selfies with families. "Direct contact with the public gives me valuable insights into the effectiveness of our initiatives," said the CM. A local family, thrilled by the interaction, said, "We will proudly upload this photo on our social media. It was a moment of pride for us."
