The Digitalization of Land Records Expected to Complete this Year

[Salman]

The digitalization of land records in Punjab and Sindh is expected to be completed during this year. This digitalization will make the lives easy of landlords and buyers. The records will be at a very access so the buyers will have the opportunity to check the history of that particular land.

The experts are expecting that the economic dynamics will change as the digitalization comes with transparency and clearance in buying and selling the tangible assets. A secure buying and selling of land will give the confidence to the businessmen, investors and multi-national companies to acquire a land without hesitation. It will also damage the interests of land mafias and the land occupation will become almost impossible for land mafias.

Against the general impression of Sindh Government, it is a great success of Sindh Government as they will be the first province where land records will be computerized. Almost 95% records are being updated and hopefully it will complete in the current calendar year. Punjab is the second province where digitalization is under process and the people of the two provinces are expecting that they will get the independence from the corrupt Patwari System in 2015
