| Missing revenue maps: After CS’s directions erring officers likely to face strict action | | | Early Times Report
Jammu, June 15: A day after directions of Chief Secretary Dr. Arun Kumar Mehta to single out officers responsible for missing important revenue maps, higher-ups have initiated the exercise to fix responsibilities.
Highly placed sources said that Chief Secretary has taken very serious note of this scandal and directed the authorities concerned to complete the probe as early as possible to take action against erring officers/officials.
On Wednesday Chief Secretary took serious note of the missing 392 revenue maps across the Union Territory and directed the authorities to fix responsibility on those who were responsible for this misdeed.
While reviewing the overall implementation of various schemes for the development of Agriculture in J&K, the Chief Secretary exhorted the officers to fix the responsibility for misplacing 392 revenue maps (Mussavis) and initiate the process of recreating the same at the earliest.
The Chief Secretary emphasized the early implementation of J&K Digital Agriculture Mission (Agristack) and said that the premise of missing of such a significant record is unacceptable and needs to be looked into seriously.
He asked for carrying out a thorough investigation into the matter for fixing the responsibility for misplacing these maps. He also directed that these records be recreated without loss of time.
Regarding the geo-referencing of cadastral maps of revenue villages, Dr. Mehta observed that it should actually make the process of demarcation easy and more accurate.
He also advised devising the SOPs/guidelines for resolving any issues or gaps arising from migrating the record from traditional systems to modern systems.
Notably the Jammu and Kashmir Government has already directed all Deputy Commissioners (DCs) to lodge FIRs when vital revenue records were found missing.
This step was taken after it was established that the whole revenue record of the Sujwana and Chowdhi localities on the outskirt of Jammu City found was missing.
The government had stated that the missing of certain important Revenue papers/extracts such as Record of Rights (Misl- Haqiat), Jamabandis, Girdawaris, Lathas, Massavis, etc from the records of Revenue Record Room and Patwaris has been taken seriously.
Unless a record has been reported to have been missing while taking over the charge report, it shall be deemed to be the responsibility of the incumbent to hand over these records.
However, the missing revenue record from the records of Patwaris or other revenue Officer/officials is a criminal offence that merits exemplary action. |
