The Haryana Government on Wednesday resumed registration of property in urban areas of Gurugram and advocated for e-appointments at Tehsil and Sub-Tehsil offices in order to bring transparency in the registration of deeds.

With this, anyone can book his appointment from anywhere across the country directly by visiting https://jamabandi.nic.in web portal of the Revenue department.

According to a notification issued by the state government on Monday the links "Appointment for Deed Registration" and "Check Deed Appointment Availability" are available at "Property Registration" link on jamabandi.nic.in web portal.

However the revenue officials are reviewing the process for registration in urban areas and expecting that the e-appointments process will take a week's time for smooth functioning at Tehsil offices.

The revenue officials also informed that registration of property has been resumed but the Transfer Deed yet to be resumed.

Deputy Commissioner Gurugram, Amit Khatri informed that they have received guidelines from the state government in connection with registration of property in urban areas.

“To bring transparency in property registration we are in process to digitise all the land records of urban and rural areas across the district and with this new initiative by the state government anyone can book an e-appointment through the web portal of the Revenue department.

Earlier for an appointment anyone used to visit the

tehsil office twice but with this portal in a single visit the visitor can register their property in one go as they already have an appointment at tehsil offices,” said Amit Khari

deputy commissioner Gurugram.

Talking more about technical points about e-appointment system district revenue officer, Basti Ram informed that after having an appointment through portal one will get date, time and an E-mail from the concerned tehsil office for the property registration.

“If someone’s property fall under section-7A of the Haryana development and regulation areas act 1975 the owner of the property will have to obtain no-objection certificate (NOC) from urban local bodies and the town and country planning department (DTCP) and the same will be updated in system automatically and if anyone did not obtain NOC form the departments the registration of property will not be executed,” Basti Ram said.

The officer further informed that the same process will be followed on government land and forest land.

Amidst allegations of scam in property registration without obtaining a no-objection certificate from urban local bodies and the town and country planning department, the Haryana government had halted registration of all properties across the state on July 23.

Seven revenue officials from Gurugram have been placed under suspension in connection with the scam.
