Pune Revenue Department Makes 7 12 Land Record Corrections Online Only

Read Time:-2 Min

In a major step toward curbing malpractices and enhancing transparency in land management, the Pune Revenue Department has made it a requirement that all the corrections to the 7/12 land extract—a key document providing information regarding land ownership and rights—shall be henceforth done only through an online system.

This directive covers all the amendments under Section 155 of the Maharashtra Land Revenue Code, that permit amendments like changing names of owners, size of the land or correction of clerical mistakes.

Why This Matters

The move comes in light of recent developments where certain tehsildars were found to be abusing their authority by making manual alterations to government and grazing land records—transferring ownership or even changing land details at times without adequate reasons. Such acts not only erode public faith but could also result in full-blown land conflicts.

By adopting a completely digital approach, the department makes sure that:

All alterations can be traced

Each correction will be supported by a documentary proof, and the name of the revenue officer initiating the modification will be captured in the system.

Offline edits are void

All manual changes will cease to have legal sanctity.

Increased accountability

The reform facilitates easier auditing and detection of unauthorized changes.

What Landowners Need to Know

Anybody who wishes to rectify their land information in the 7/12 extract will now:

Submit through the authorized government website

Submit genuine documents to accompany their application

Follow status online

This scheme is not just an effort to curb malpractice but also a forward step towards digitized, corruption-free land records of Maharashtra.
