While interacting with Sarpanchs from across the country via video conferencing, PM Narendra Modi launched the Swamitva scheme. The scheme is already being run in pilot mode across 6 states.
The Swamitva scheme helps to map rural inhabited lands using drones and latest survey methods. The scheme will ensure streamlined planning, revenue collection and provide clarity over property rights in rural areas. This will open up avenues for applying for loans from financial institutions by the owners. Disputes related to property would also be settled through the title deeds allotted through this scheme.
