With reference to the Digital India Land Records Modernisation Programme, consider the following statements: Which of the statements given above are correct?

  1. 1.

    To implement the scheme, the Central Government provides 100% funding

  2. 2.

    Under the Scheme, Cadastral Maps are digitised.

Options

a

1 and 2 only

b

2 and 3 only

c

1 and 3 only

d

1, 2 and 3

Answer

Explanation

All three statements are correct. DILRMP was revamped as a Central Sector Scheme, meaning it receives 100% funding from the Centre. Its core mandate includes the digitization of cadastral maps. Recently, it rolled out a massive multilingual transliteration tool to convert Records of Rights (RoR) across the 22 Eighth Schedule languages.

Modernization of land records fundamentally relies on map digitization (cadastral) and cross-linguistic transparency (transliteration).

Answer: (d).
