Haryana to Launch ‘Jalsa-E-Aam’ Drive to Clear Mutation Backlog, Pushes Agristack and Digital Revenue Reforms

Punjab Newsline, Chandigarh-

In a major administrative push to ease public hardship and strengthen citizen-centric governance, the Haryana Government has launched a time-bound statewide campaign ‘Jalsa-E-Aam’ to clear all pending mutation cases, while simultaneously accelerating Agristack implementation, digital revenue reforms, improve disposal of land partition cases, inter-State boundary demarcation and comprehensive cold-wave preparedness.

The measures were reviewed and announced by the Financial Commissioner Revenue and Disaster Management Department, Dr. Sumita Misra, during a high-level meeting with Deputy Commissioners through video conferencing here today.

The Jalsa-E-Aam campaign will be conducted on Saturdays — January 10, 17, 24 and 31 — to ensure time-bound disposal of mutation cases. Dr. Misra directed that the campaign be given wide publicity to ensure maximum public participation. The State is currently processing 1,89,635 mutation applications across 143 tehsils and 7,104 villages. Deputy Commissioners have been instructed to prioritise 50,794 cases pending for more than ten days, with Faridabad, Palwal and Ambala accounting for the special focus. To further ease public inconvenience, the State is moving towards auto-mutation, for which the existing backlog must be cleared on priority.

Stressing the need to address long-pending land partition cases, Dr. Misra ordered strict enforcement of the substituted Section 111A of the Punjab Land Revenue Act, which provides for quick disposal. To accelerate disposal, each Assistant Collector (Second Grade) has been mandated to dispose of a minimum of 12 partition cases per month, while Tehsildars with lighter workloads have been assigned a target of 20 cases per month.

To ensure accountability, Dr. Misra instructed the establishment of a three-tier monitoring mechanism, with monthly reviews at the district, divisional and State levels. She also directed the introduction of an Alternative Dispute Resolution (ADR) mechanism, under which retired Revenue Officers will be engaged on a contractual basis to conduct village-level camps for consensus-based settlements. An honorarium of Rs. 10,000 per successfully resolved case, to be shared equally by the contesting parties, has been approved to encourage amicable resolutions. DCs were directed to empanel retired revenue offices to conduct ADR camps in villages with a higher number of pending revenue cases.

 Digital Transformation Gains

 Reviewing progress in digital revenue administration, Dr. Misra said Haryana has digitised over 60 lakh land records. Since the launch of the paperless registration system, 83,379 property deeds have been registered through paperless registration mode. Of 1,17,931 deeds processed, 90,711 have been approved, reflecting an approval rate of 76.9 percent. She directed that registration cases reverted more than twice should be automatically escalated to senior officers for timely resolution.

 Tatima Digitisation Nears Completion

As of January 5, 2026, 60.43 lakh Tatima records have been completed across 6,351 geo-referenced villages. Mahendragarh has achieved 99.7 percent completion, while Bhiwani and Jind have completed 3.82 lakh and 4.28 lakh records, respectively. Remaining districts have been directed to complete the work by January 31, 2026.

 Agristack Rollout and Compliance Measures

 Under Agristack, data buckets have been created for over 98 lakh farmers, with 5.12 lakh enrolments completed so far. Dr. Misra directed that PPP-ID and Aadhaar seeding for landowners be carried out simultaneously at Agristack camps and completed within one month. Priority will be given to PM-Kisan beneficiaries, who will be mobilised through SMS alerts sent by the Agriculture Department.

She further directed that Agriculture, Revenue and CRID officials work together on a common platform during field-level camps to ensure seamless Aadhaar-PPP seeding and updating of revenue records. Dr. Misra also emphasised expeditious disposal of pending disciplinary proceedings and strict adherence to court-mandated timelines in arbitration cases under the National Highways Act.

*Inter-State Boundary Demarcation

On the Haryana–Uttar Pradesh border, 535 out of 1,221 boundary pillars have been erected so far. Sonipat leads with 74.6 percent completion, followed by Palwal and Karnal. The remaining work has been directed to be completed by February 18, 2026.

 Cold Wave Preparedness and Public Advisory

Dr. Misra said the State has implemented a Cold Wave Action Plan in line with India Meteorological Department guidelines. District-level emergency response teams equipped with medical supplies and warm clothing have been activated and will respond within 24 hours.

 

She appealed to citizens to check on vulnerable neighbours, particularly elderly persons living alone, pregnant women and families with young children. Community centres, gram panchayats and resident welfare associations have been urged to organise awareness camps on recognising early signs of hypothermia and frostbite. Citizens can report anyone in distress due to extreme cold by dialling the emergency helpline 112, she added.
