  • Now, through the new software launched by the Chief Minister, the land units are sub-divided as a whole and registered in the name of the owner, so that later requests for sub-division of the plots will be avoided.
  • There will be a reduction in the number of subdivision petitions based on land units, and the people will be issued land grants sooner. Also, people don't need to apply again separately or go to District Collector's office in person for change of license.
