About the SVAMITVA Scheme
The SVAMITVA (Survey of Villages and Mapping with Improvised Technology in Village Areas) scheme was launched by the Government of India to provide rural landowners with property ownership records in the form of legal title deeds. This initiative leverages modern technology, including drone-based mapping, to digitize land records and reduce disputes related to property ownership.
Transformational Impact
The scheme aims to:
Empower rural residents with property ownership rights.
Boost transparency in land records and governance.
Facilitate access to financial services like loans using property as collateral.
Resolve long-standing property disputes effectively.
The Prime Minister’s emphasis on the SVAMITVA scheme highlights its pivotal role in fostering rural development and ensuring economic stability for millions in India’s villages. This initiative stands as a testament to the government’s commitment to leveraging technology for inclusive growth and rural empowerment.
