The central government is working on many fronts to end the land-related disputes of the people in rural areas and to increase the economic resources. Union Rural Development and Panchayati Raj Minister Giriraj Singh informed that each plot will have a unique Bhu-Aadhaar number. By linking the ownership and ULPIN, every plot of land in the country will get a Bhu-Aadhaar number.
Will get rid of the shock of the Revenue Court
In fact, National Generic Document Registration System (NGDRS) has been launched in Ladakh and Unique Land Parcel Identification Number (ULPIN) has been launched in Assam. Union Minister Giriraj Singh said that due to technology in Panchayati Raj and land resources, there will be a big increase in the ease of living. The government is contemplating to give a unique Bhu-Aadhaar number to each part of the country by linking the flagship scheme of the Ministry of Panchayati Raj to ownership and the ULPIN scheme of the Department of Land Resources. After the introduction of this unique number, corruption and fraud in land matters in the country will become almost zero due to PAN number, Aadhaar number and Bhu-Aadhaar. People will get rid of the hustle and bustle of the revenue court and court cases will be reduced.
It will be easy to get bank loan
During this, he said that having land documents would help people in getting loans from banks. On the other hand, the government will benefit in revenue and there will be ease in the implementation of schemes like Pradhan Mantri Kisan Yojana, Pradhan Mantri Fasal Bima Yojana, Fertilizer Subsidy, Disaster Management etc.
What is Unique Plot Identification Number
Alpin system has been introduced to prevent fraud and disputes in the management of land and to have a generally unique identity. In which according to the geographical location of the plot, a unique identification is created through the software, which is named as Unique Plot Identification Number (Unique Land Parcel Identification Number). It has been implemented in 14 states and union territories including Assam and pilot test has been done in six states.
Rural economy will get encouragement
He said that having a unique Bhu-Aadhaar number of each land would make it easier to spray pesticides using drone technology and inspect crops under the Crop Insurance Scheme. Delivery can also be done in remote areas using drone technology. Due to these technologies, rural economy will get a big boost and employment generation will also increase.
