Maharashtra's 'one state one registration' scheme, aimed at allowing property registration at any sub-registrar office statewide, has been delayed due to legal and technical concerns. Originally part of a 100-day priority program, the rollout has been paused over risks like impersonation, fraudulent land transfers, and stamp duty evasion. In response, the revenue department has issued strict compliance guidelines and mandated biweekly inspections by district registrars and stamp duty collectors. Until safeguards are in place, the current 'one district one registration' system will continue. The delay highlights persistent challenges in digitalizing property records and ensuring secure, fraud-proof transactions across the state.
Maharashtra's "one state one registration" scheme has recently encountered delays in its implementation. This initiative, impacting property owners across Maharashtra, has been temporarily withheld due to ongoing legal and technical hurdles. Advertisement
The scheme's purpose is to allow citizens to register property documents at any sub-registrar office across the state. This scheme, which was part of the state government's 100-day priority program, has been temporarily put on hold due to concerns about fraud, such as impersonation, fraudulent land transfers, and widespread stamp duty evasion.
To address these issues, the revenue department has issued strict guidelines to sub-registrars. It has also mandated fortnightly inspections by district joint registrars and collectors of stamps. However, until a proper resolution is sought, the existing "one district one registration" scheme will remain in place.
Digitalization of property records faces challenges in many parts of India, particularly concerning data integrity and fraud prevention.
