A first: Haryana to roll out paperless deed registration from Aug 11

Earlier, the paper scrutiny took place on the day of appointment causing a 30 per cent failure in the deed registration either due to objections or lack of documents, she said, adding, “Now, with this template-based application module, the application is pushed for verification to the concerned tehsil office. After receiving approval on the same portal, the applicant can complete the payment process and book an appointment slot”.

The applicant only has to appear for a photograph and signature/biometrics on the day of the appointment, where their approved application is already online, she said.

Misra said that this structured mechanism is expected to reduce waiting times, eliminate queues, and minimize procedural inefficiencies, delivering a more professional and seamless experience to the public.

“A key feature of the new model is enhanced transparency in transactions. All revenue records will be updated in real time, and any existing disputes, encumbrances, or pending loans on a property will be automatically flagged during the registration process, enabling informed decision-making by buyers and sellers alike,” Misra said.

She said this reform will plug revenue leakages, safeguard government income, and foster greater trust and accountability in land-related dealings. “Applicants will also be provided with a clear checklist of required documents, ensuring accuracy and reducing rejections due to incomplete submissions,” she said, adding the pilot project in Naraingarh is envisioned as a stepping stone for statewide implementation.

Misra said that this initiative will transform land registration across Haryana into a digitally driven, efficient, and transparent process, reaffirming the state government’s commitment to responsive governance and public-centric reforms.
