"These land records play an important role for Gram Panchayats that currently struggle with generating revenues, especially through property tax, who can better invest in the needs of local communities." https://economictimes.indiatimes.com/news/economy/policy/how-svamitva-scheme-aims-to-transform-rural-india/articleshow/78602625.cms">https://economictimes.indiatimes.com/news/econ...

"Once ownership of property becomes easy to demarcate and prove, its prices will also be fixed.
