Hyderabad: The Telangana government on Tuesday, November 10, said its flagship land re-survey had begun in 1,000 villages and had been completed in 416. The progress was reviewed at a high-level meeting at the BR Ambedkar Secretariat.
The meeting was headed by the Minister for Revenue and Housing, Information & Public Relations, Ponguleti Srinivasa Reddy. Sharing this on X, Reddy said, “We discussed in detail the problems encountered in the field during the land survey, the response from farmers, technical aspects, and the conditions faced by the staff involved in the survey. I also spoke directly with the staff participating in the survey over the phone to understand the situation.”
As part of Phase 1, re-surveys are being done in 2,720 villages, with roughly 70 villages in each of the 32 districts other than Hyderabad, out of the state’s 10,954 revenue villages.
Once the survey is over, notices must be issued to landowners, and their objections registered and resolved. The minister said that in villages where the re-survey has been completed, the programme to assign a BhuBharat number, an identifier for every plot of land, would be expedited.
“The main purpose of this historic programme is to provide a Telangana free of land disputes in the future,” he said.
The Minister added that there would be a special video conference with District Collectors, Additional Collectors, RDOs and Assistant Directors of the Survey Department on the progress of the land re-survey on Wednesday, November 11.
