Punjab to Replace Registry Clerks to Curb Corruption
The Punjab government is changing the people who handle property registrations.
They are getting rid of the old clerks because some were taking bribes and making the process slow.
New people will be hired to help, and the government will make sure they don't stay in the same jobs for too long to prevent corruption.
They're also updating the training for these jobs to make things better for everyone.
Punjab Revenue Department is replacing long-serving registry clerks in tehsil offices.
The move aims to curb corruption and improve transparency in property registrations.
Newly appointed employees, including those with seven years of service, will assist with registrations.
The government is modernizing the registry clerk recruitment and training framework.
District administrations must swiftly implement the changes and report compliance.
