Srinagar: All Jammu and Kashmir Patwar Association (AJKPA) has urged the LG administration to train patwaris ‘as the revenue department officials aren’t tech-savvy and some face problems while registering land records digitally.’
"The records being digitized at present don’t carry the correct names of the people, which has left the common masses aghast. As the Patwaris are not tech-savvy, the government should play its role to organize training workshops for all, Abdul Majeed Malla, president of the association said.
Many have complained of problems in the ongoing digitization process,” Malla said.
He also said that people have raised concerns over incorrect online information as real estate is a matter of millions of rupees.
“Digitization is an appreciable and welcome step, but at the same time, the Patwaris should be trained well to ensure that the concerns are executed without any flaw,” Malla said, adding that the government must understand why the private outsourcing failed to ensure digitization of the records from the past four years.
