PESHAWAR: The KPK government has unveiled a major overhaul of its revenue administration, including plans to digitise land records and introduce a real-time system to detect encroachments on state land.
The announcement came from Provincial Revenue Minister Tariq Mahmood Aryani, who chaired the first policy meeting of the Revenue Department on Thursday to outline a modernisation agenda to improve transparency and public service delivery.ย
The session was attended by Members of the National Assembly Muhammad Atif Khan and Arbab Sher, revenue expert Daud Khan, Senior Member Board of Revenue Zahir Shah Khan, and other senior officials.
Addressing participants, the minister stressed that the Revenue Department needed to keep pace with global technological trends, arguing that expanded use of digital systems would boost efficiency and make government services more accessible to the public.ย
He confirmed that the land mutation process, known locally as Intiqal, would be fully digitised and that records of government land would be integrated into a new monitoring platform capable of flagging encroachments as they occur.
Under the proposed framework, designated officers would be automatically notified whenever state land is illegally occupied, while the system would also track any delays in official response to strengthen accountability across the department.
Aryani also announced the creation of a dedicated grievance redressal cell to handle public complaints more efficiently, as well as plans to digitise inquiries and disciplinary proceedings involving revenue officials.
Beyond the technology-driven reforms, the minister instructed officials to prioritise resolving long-pending Khana Kasht disputes and directed the revenue administration to clear outstanding land cases within defined timeframes.
Concluding the meeting, Aryani ordered immediate implementation of the announced measures and asked relevant departments to present a detailed progress report at the next review session.
