The Telangana government has extended the deadline for the special drive to resolve pending Dharani applications by a week.
During the special drive conducted between March 1 and 9 at the tahsildar level, the government settled close to one lakh applications at different levels. This is against the 2.45 lakh applications received from farmers expressing their grievances ever since the launch of Dharani portal.
Since the pendency of applications remains high, the government has decided to extend the special drive till March 17. Accordingly, district collectors have been asked to give personal attention to clearing pending applications. The collectors have been directed to treat this as priority and ensure that guidelines are scrupulously followed for disposal of pending applications in a time-bound manner, a circular issued by Chief Commissioner of Land Administration Navin Mittal on Monday said.
