He clarified that the system should be developed so that auto-mutation happens immediately after registration. He clarified that land owners should not have to repeatedly go around the offices for the pattadar passbook, and that a complete cleansing should be done in the revenue department within a year.
The Chief Minister revealed that he will review this every month. Revenue Minister Angani Satya Prasad, Special Chief Secretary of the Revenue Department Sai Prasad and CCLA officials attended the review meeting held by the Chief Minister on Tuesday on the revenue department at the Secretariat.
