To facilitate the process, the government has established a fixed fee of Rs500 per plot for rural areas and Rs1,000 for urban areas, ensuring a streamlined and accessible measurement service. The entire process is mandated to conclude within a maximum of 30 working days from the date of online application.
PATNA: To enhance transparency and reduce disputes related to land measurements, the Bihar State Revenue and Land Reforms Department introduced a groundbreaking initiative on Wednesday—the launch of the E-Mapi portal. The portal enables landowners to conveniently apply for land measurement online, eliminating the need to visit block and circle offices for the assessment conducted by the government-appointed amin.
Alok Kumar Mehta, the minister of the department, emphasized that this online platform, accessible at www.emapi.bihar.gov.in, empowers landowners to monitor the status of their applications without the hassle of physical visits to government offices.
Mehta elaborated on the portal’s features, highlighting that landowners must register online with their land details and contact information. The circle officer will then verify the land details, issue notices to neighboring landholders (chauhadidaar), and set a date for their presence during the measurement process. The concerned revenue officer will recommend the measurement, allowing individuals to raise objections before the respective circle officer (CO).
To facilitate the process, the government has established a fixed fee of Rs500 per plot for rural areas and Rs1,000 for urban areas, ensuring a streamlined and accessible measurement service. The entire process is mandated to conclude within a maximum of 30 working days from the date of online application.
In a bid to cater to those residing outside the state on short visits, the government introduced the ‘Tatkal’ facility. Applicants availing this service will be charged Rs1,000 per plot in rural areas and Rs2,000 in urban localities, with a commitment to completing the process within seven working days, as highlighted by the minister.
Mehta emphasized that amins are obligated to measure a plot within two days and submit the report to the CO, who will subsequently make it public on the portal, ensuring transparency throughout the entire process.
The minister clarified that landless individuals who have received land from the state government for housing purposes will not incur any charges for the measurement service. This initiative aims to streamline the land measurement process, promote transparency, and reduce the burden on landowners in Bihar.
