Telangana Government Proposes New Land Law for Resolving Land Issues The Telangana government is set to introduce a new land law to address persistent land issues in the state. The current Record of Rights (ROR)-2020 law, implemented by the previous government, has proven ineffective, prompting the Revanth Sarkar administration to draft a new legislation. Read on for more details. Current Land Issues in Telangana The Revanth Sarkar administration is actively working to resolve the ongoing land issues in Telangana. The current ROR-2020 law, which was introduced as a replacement for the old law during the implementation of the Dharani Portal by the BRS government, has not yielded the desired results. After a thorough review by a special committee appointed by the Congress government, it was concluded that the ROR-2020 law fails to provide a permanent solution to land disputes, and has, in fact, created additional problems. Significant Changes Proposed The special committee, consisting of experts, has recommended either significant amendments to the existing law or its complete repeal and replacement with a new one. Following these recommendations, the state government has decided to draft a new law instead of amending the existing one. The new law, tentatively named Record of Rights-2024, is being carefully designed to include essential changes and address the flaws of the current law. The draft of the new law is expected to be presented for approval in the upcoming Assembly Budget session in July. Expected Improvements in the New Law One of the key improvements anticipated in the new law is the decentralization of powers among various levels of officials to resolve land issues more effectively. The new law aims to provide clear guidelines on the powers and responsibilities of collectors, RDOs, and tahsildars. Additionally, it will address the issue of 18 lakh acres of land that were placed in Part-B without issuing passbooks, and another 9 lakh acres of land that were transacted under Sadabinama without obtaining passbooks. The new law seeks to provide solutions for these lands and ensure proper documentation. Introduction of 'Bhubharathi' Portal The state government is also planning to replace the Dharani Portal with a new Bhubharathi Portal. This initiative aims to resolve over one lakh pending farmer issues within a week to ten days. The Dharani Committee has been conducting an in-depth study to identify and remove various obstacles hindering the resolution of land issues. The new Bhubharathi Portal will streamline the process and bring under one umbrella the various land laws that currently exist, simplifying the resolution of land disputes. Challenges with the Existing ROR-2020 Law The current ROR-2020 law, implemented by the BRS government, did not come with adequate guidelines for resolving issues at the mandal, divisional, district, and state levels. This lack of clarity on the powers of officials at various levels has compounded the problems. Furthermore, the existence of multiple revenue laws has created additional hurdles in resolving land issues. The new law aims to bring all these laws under a single framework to prevent future conflicts. Government's Efforts to Resolve Pending Land Issues The Telangana government has been actively working to resolve the 2.46 lakh pending applications related to land issues from the previous administration. In addition, a special drive conducted in the first week of March by the Congress government received over 60,000 new applications. As a result, the total number of applications has surpassed three lakhs. According to the Dharani Committee, over one lakh issues have been resolved at the mandal, constituency, and district levels and have been forwarded to the CCLA for further action. The process of uploading these resolved issues to the Dharani Portal is ongoing, and it is expected that these issues will be fully resolved within a week to ten days. Focus on Legal and Administrative Reforms The government is also focusing on resolving land issues pending in courts and family disputes. The Dharani Committee has identified a significant number of issues that can be resolved at the collector level under the TM-33 module. The committee believes that a new ROR law is necessary to address Part-B and Sadabinama issues fully. The lack of proper guidelines during the implementation of the ROR-2020 law has rendered it ineffective, and the new law aims to rectify this. Minister Ponguleti's Update on Dharani Portal Cleanup Minister Ponguleti Srinivas Reddy has stated that the state government is taking steps to clean up the Dharani Portal. Due to errors in the portal, many farmers have been deprived of welfare benefits from the government. The Dharani Committee has completed its work on the new ROR law and is ready to present it to the Revenue Minister for review before introducing it in the Assembly. The government plans to take over the Dharani Portal system, which is currently under private management, to ensure better control and efficiency. The Telangana government's proactive approach in drafting a new land law and replacing the Dharani Portal with the Bhubharathi Portal demonstrates its commitment to resolving long-standing land issues and providing clarity and relief to farmers and landowners in the state.

These meetings are vital for setting the direction for the state's future political strategies. Directions for MPs Additionally, the Chief Minister will provide guidance to the MPs on issues concerning the state that need to be raised in Parliament. This directive is essential to ensure that the state's interests are well-represented at the national level. Upcoming Decisions and Political Movements The political environment in Telangana is dynamic, with continuous changes and strategic movements. The inclusion of new members in the cabinet is a critical step for the Chief Minister to solidify his leadership and ensure effective governance. This expansion aims to balance the political equations and fulfill the promises made to key stakeholders within the party. Potential Impact on Governance The decisions made during this tour will significantly impact the state's governance and political stability. By expanding the cabinet and including more representatives, the Chief Minister aims to create a more inclusive and efficient government. This move is also expected to strengthen the party's position ahead of the upcoming legislative assembly elections. In summary, CM Revanth Reddy's Delhi tour is a pivotal moment for Telangana's political future. The discussions and decisions made during this visit will shape the state's governance and political landscape, ensuring that the promises made to the people and party members are fulfilled.

Addressing the burgeoning parking problem in Telangana, particularly in Hyderabad, has become a priority. The directive from Information Technology (IT) Minister D Sridhar Babu came in response to Chief Minister A Revanth Reddy's call for innovative solutions to manage traffic and vehicle parking in urban areas. With the rapid increase in vehicle numbers, Artificial Intelligence (AI) is set to play a pivotal role in providing effective parking solutions. AI: The Future of Parking Management Artificial Intelligence offers a myriad of solutions to tackle parking issues. Given the scarcity of space, the construction of multi-level parking lots is a significant step forward. AI can optimize these spaces, ensuring maximum efficiency and ease of use for vehicle owners. The Current Parking Scenario in Hyderabad According to the IT Minister, Hyderabad alone houses approximately 1.4 million four-wheelers, 70,000 cabs, and 100,000 auto-rickshaws. This surge in vehicle numbers has led to severe parking challenges, with drivers struggling to find spots on roadsides and in shopping areas. Leveraging AI for Parking Solutions Minister Sridhar Babu emphasized the need for AI to identify high-traffic areas. Developing applications that allow people to book parking spaces in advance can significantly reduce the chaos and time spent searching for parking. "Using AI, we can pinpoint areas with heavy vehicle flow and develop applications for pre-booking parking lots," said Sridhar Babu. He also suggested consulting companies specializing in AI-driven solutions to implement these advancements. Global Perspectives and Local Adaptation Many countries worldwide have successfully implemented AI services to address parking issues. Studying these global practices and tailoring them to meet local needs is crucial. The Minister highlighted the importance of conducting thorough research on AI-based parking solutions and adapting them to fit the unique requirements of Telangana. Multi-Level Parking Lots: A Necessity The Minister pointed out that with the current space constraints, constructing multi-level parking lots is essential. AI can aid in the design and management of these facilities, ensuring they operate at optimal capacity. The Role of Private Companies Private companies specializing in AI technologies are pivotal in this initiative. The presentation witnessed by the Minister from a private firm showcased innovative solutions that could be adapted to the local context. Conclusion: A Smarter Future for Parking in Telangana The integration of AI in managing parking issues marks a significant step towards smarter urban living. By adopting advanced technologies and learning from global best practices, Telangana can effectively address its parking woes. The directive from the IT Minister sets the stage for a future where parking in Hyderabad and other urban areas becomes seamless and efficient, thanks to AI. Telangana State
