Swamitva Yojana Registrations Uncertain After Officials’ Talks Fail
The Swamitva Yojana involves registering land documents for beneficiaries.
Government officials called patwaris and tehsildars to discuss how the registrations should happen.
The meetings took place on Saturday but did not solve the disagreement.
Patwaris do not want their names listed as sellers or executors in the documents.
Tehsildars do not want to be the officers responsible for registering the documents.
Both groups worry that people could take them to court later if they disagree with a registry.
They say the government’s stamps and registration department should handle the work instead.
The government said it would consider their demands and make a decision later.
Because no agreement was reached, uncertainty over the registrations continues.
Talks between the Madhya Pradesh government and patwaris’ and tehsildars’ associations ended without a final decision.
Patwaris oppose being named executors and sellers in land registries under the Swamitva Yojana.
Tehsildars object to being designated registry officers for the scheme.
Both groups fear civil lawsuits and legal liability if beneficiaries or other claimants challenge registries.
The associations want the government’s stamps and registration department to conduct the land registrations instead.
