The Mission Basundhara was established to provide land revenue services to the general population and to make the land-related activity more accessible to them. The initiative was started with the goal of eliminating middlemen or brokers from the system and allowing the general public to address their land-related issues over the internet.
During the ceremonial launch of the mission, last year Chief Minister Sarma announced that a total of Rs 225 crore would be spent on its implementation, adding that the effort will allow the state to restore all lost land records.
The three components of the mission are- Purification of land records in a mission mode, polygon survey of 672 non-cadastral villages that have yet to be surveyed, and re-survey of 18789 cadastral villages in 27 districts using hybrid methods.
It may be mentioned that a total of 8,09311 applications were registered in the Mission Basundhara portal of which 3,01576 are being disposed of. The application includes issues on mutation, partition, reclassification, allotment, conversion, name deletion, mobile number updation, name correction, and correction in regards to land-related matters.
