The Haryana government is set to introduce a faceless property registration system, with a pilot project scheduled to begin in Faridabad by the end of March. The initiative is aimed at digitising land administration and improving transparency in property-related transactions across the state.
The pilot will run for a period of three months and will serve as a testing ground before the government considers expanding the system to other districts. The project will initially be implemented in one tehsil of Faridabad and will be closely monitored during the trial phase.
Announcing the move, Mrs. Sumita Misra, Financial Commissioner of the Revenue and Disaster Management Department, said the initiative marks a major step towards building a fully digital and citizen-friendly property registration process. She noted that the system is designed to minimise physical visits to government offices and make services more accessible and convenient for the public.
According to the state government, the faceless registration system will allow property registrations to be completed through a digital platform, reducing delays and limiting human intervention. The new process is expected to address long-standing issues such as lack of transparency, procedural inefficiencies and scope for corruption in land registration.
Mrs. Misra said the Faridabad pilot reflects Haryana’s broader focus on technology-led governance reforms. She added that the digital system would change the way citizens interact with land administration by offering faster processing and greater accountability.
The pilot will include all core features of the faceless registration system. Some additional, non-essential features may be introduced later based on operational needs and feedback from users. The platform will be hosted securely on the Ministry of Electronics and Information Technology’s cloud infrastructure.
Key safeguards include a comprehensive digital workflow, reduced discretionary powers, and oversight by nodal officers from both the Revenue Department and the implementing agency. The system will also generate a detailed audit trail, ensuring better monitoring and transparency.
Once the technical setup and user acceptance testing are completed, the three-month pilot will begin. Based on its performance and public response, the Haryana government may roll out the faceless property registration system in other districts in a phased manner, reinforcing its push for efficient and technology-driven public services.
