Union Minister for Rural Development Shivraj Singh Chouhan has formally launched the Operational Guidelines for the Digital India Land Records Modernisation Programme (DILRMP) 3.0 during a hybrid event in New Delhi.

Addressing the gathering, Mr Chouhan stated that DILRMP 3.0 is a decisive step towards improving Ease of Living for rural citizens, farmers, and property owners. The Minister underscored that land in India is deeply tied to emotional and familial identities, making accurate and accessible documentation vital. The Minister noted that DILRMP 3.0 moves from isolated digitization to full system integration, ensuring farmers can secure institutional credit easily and citizens are spared repeated visits to government offices.

Minister of State for Rural Development, Dr. Chandra Sekhar Pemmasani, highlighted that DILRMP 3.0 will resolve legacy challenges by focusing on spatial accuracy, georeferenced maps, and seamless interoperability across departments.

Meanwhile, Secretary, Department of Land Resources, Narendra Bhooshan, said that DILRMP 3.0 marks a shift toward building an integrated Digital Public Infrastructure for land administration. The Ministry said that DILRMP 3.0 will be implemented across all States and Union Territories with 100 percent central funding under a phased, performance-linked mechanism managed through the Public Financial Management System.
