In Tripura, Union Minister for Rural Development and Panchayati Raj Giriraj Singh along with Minister of State Faggan Singh Kulaste today inaugurated the National Generic Document Registration System and Banadhikar mobile application through virtual mode.
Addressing the function, the Union Minister said, Tripura’s potentials for growth in the primary sectors like agriculture and other allied sectors are visible and in the last three and half years a lot of work has been done in this regard. He said that land registration and land rights are some of the key areas that need to be addressed at the earliest and this is why, the scheme has been rolled out across the country.
Mr Singh said, today, Tripura has also benefited from the programme. He has been told that 1.3 lakh tribal people who are going to get forest Patta lands under the Banadhikar mobile application will get a uniform map of their land. When they realize that this land belongs to them a sense of encouragement for proper utilization of the land will come.
The Union Minister advised Chief Minister Biplab Kumar Deb to explore innovative avenues for the development of horticultural crops in the forest lands. He batted for banana-based industries by SHG groups while using forest Patta lands for growing horticultural goods that are suitable for the land. The Union Minister also told the present Ministers and higher officials to tap the opportunity of business through active bamboo charcoal due to the abundant availability of raw materials in the state.
On the occasion, Chief Minister Biplab Kumar Deb said, through these new schemes, each and every plot in the state will get a unique ID and the registration process will become very easy. People will get a single stop centre for all their queries and the whole land registration system will be made online with zero space for corrupt practices.
