Shravasti leads Uttar Pradesh in resolving land revenue cases in the latest report. Under the leadership of Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath, UP has prioritised resolving land revenue disputes efficiently and to monitor progress, district-wise rankings for the resolution of these cases are released monthly.
