ISLAMABAD, (MANEND NEWS): Prime Minister Imran Khan has said
digitalization of land record will bring transparency in transfer of
properties.
Addressing the launching ceremony of the cadastral map of Islamabad,
Wednesday, Prime Minister Imran Khan said the use of technology will
also help defeat land grabbers as now anyone can get information of
plots and other lands online.
Imran Khan said cadastral mapping of Islamabad, Lahore, and Karachi
will be completed by November this year.
The cadastral mapping project has been conceived and inspired by
vision of the Prime Minister to modernize the old “Patwar system” into
modernized digital online system.
Digitalization of land record will help curb land record tempering and
ensure monitoring of construction through imagery.
This will also help overseas Pakistani to verify online information
before purchase of land in Islamabad.
The new system would also help identify the illicit hinging of state
land, encroachment at nullah and forests.
The Prime Minister also appreciated Capital Development Authority,
Survey General of Pakistan and other departments for completing the
task successfully in a short span of time.
