The Digital India Land Records Modernization Programme (DILRMP) was launched in 2008 by the Government of India with the purpose to digitize and modernize land records and to usher in a system of updated land records, automated and automatic mutation, integration between textual and spatial records, inter-connectivity between revenue and registration, to replace the present deeds registration and presumptive title system with that of conclusive titling with title guarantee.

Components of DILRMP:

• Computerization of land records.
• Survey/re-survey.
• Computerization of registration.
• Modern records room/land records management centres.
• Training & capacity building.

Benefits of DILRMP:

• Real-time land ownership records will be available to the citizens.
• Free accessibility to records will reduce interface between the citizen and the Govt. functionary.
• The single-window service will save the citizens time and effort in obtaining Record of Rights (RoR).
• Computerization will reduce the scope of fraudulent property deals.
• It will permit e-linkages to credit facilities.
