- Minister of State( for Housing and Urban Affairs Shri Hardeep S Puri launched e-Dharti app which is a new online system where all the three main modules i.e. Conversion, Substitution and Mutation have been made online.
- e-Dharti Geo Portal, another important application on which L&DO has started working, is GIS based mapping of all its approx. 65000 properties. Through this application each and every Government property under L&DO, whether it is allotted or still lying vacant, is proposed to be mapped on a portal called “e-Dharti Geo Portal”.
- Through this portal the Lessee of the property will be able to see the basic details of his/her property along with map showing its location.
- The Lessee can also be issued a Property Card from this office about his property if he asks for it.Though more than 35,000 properties have been outlined on the GIS based map all across Delhi, the actual validation is being done by checking each and every mapped property with its location and details.
- The whole exercise of validating all the L&DO properties and linking it with its details may take a time period of about one year. As on date, more than 2,500 properties have been mapped and verified. This application will not only benefit public but the Government also in getting to know the actual status of its vacant properties, whether there is any encroachment on the said property, etc. The action already taken and the proposed ones will go a long way in streamlining the working of the office making it more public friendly, accountable, efficient and transparent.
