The Karnataka government has decided to implement automatic mutation of land records from Wednesday (March 13, 2024) to avoid the role of middlemen and visiting of landowners to the offices of tahsildars.
Sharing details in this regard at a press conference here, Minister for Revenue Krishna Byre Gowda said automatic mutation would be done on mortgaging of land in banks for loans, division of property, acquisition of lands, and cases related to court orders.
Nearly 72% of changes in the land records (Pahani/RTC-Record of Rights, Tenancy and Crops) would be done automatically without human interference. “Now, changes in the Pahani require the thumb impression of the revenue inspectors”. The introduction of automatic mutation of land records would eliminate interference of officials. Details of mutation of changes in RTCs would be provided on the portal, he said.
