Bangladesh has started the process of converting digital land service into smart land service.
Land Minister Saifuzzaman Chowdhury has directed this initiative to keep the Ministry of Land at par with the government’s plan to transform from Digital Bangladesh to Smart Bangladesh.
A plan to make the e-mutation system smart has been taken up experimentally at a programme of setting up digital and smart land services under the supervision of Land Secretary Md Mustafizur Rahman PAA.
As part of this, a question-based guided smart e-mutation form has been designed, according to a press release issued on Saturday.
Besides, a provision has been made to upload the applicable data and files stored on the government server during the online registration application.
As a result, the applicants can easily and quickly fill out the e-mutation form. The updated system has separate registration forms for institution/company-owned land and individual-owned land.
In addition, the form has been updated to facilitate the proper filling of the land mutation application transferred from the purchase/Hiba. This smart system is going to be fully implemented by this month.
The Ministry of Land ministry has also taken the initiative to open suitable government data/information related to land services to ensure good governance in land administration and to make land services more people-oriented.
The number of national, divisional, and district e-Mutation applications, approval rate, and average disposal of the last 90 days can be seen by visiting the National Land Service Platform www.land.gov.bd and clicking on the e-Mutation tab thereafter.
