Senior Member Board of Revenue for Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, Akramullah Khan, stressed the significance of adhering to revenue documents and resolving land ownership issues through Khana Kasht. He underscored the need to systematically and fairly address land ownership concerns, ensuring that everyone receives their rightful due. The focus remains on working in accordance with the law to resolve these issues through legal processes.
Mr. Khan warned of strict actions against anyone causing delays or hindering the computerization process. He urged Deputy Commissioners to eliminate obstacles in the land cultivation process. The current emphasis is on concentrating efforts on buying and selling, rectifying basic records until revenue records and systems are accurate.
Emphasizing the issuance of systematic guidelines for Sales of Business and Industrial Zones (SOBIZ), Mr. Khan suggested selecting three or four locations in dairy-producing areas related to land ownership through Khana Kasht, where the number of cases is low. This strategic approach aims to efficiently address issues and streamline the resolution process.
