Haryana Unifies Land Records: New Policy Boosts Transparency & Accountability
•Haryana adopts a uniform nomenclature policy for government land records to enhance transparency and accountability.
•Financial Commissioner Dr. Sumita Misra directed standardizing ambiguous entries like “Provincial Government” to “Haryana Government”.
•The policy aims to remove ambiguity and strengthen governance in public land management by clarifying ownership and cultivation entries.
•State department lands will be recorded under “Haryana Government” ownership, with the specific department in the cultivation column.
•Lands of Central Government, state boards, Gram Panchayats, and urban local bodies will reflect their exact names; private entries won't change without legal process.
