State conducting resurvey with precision, says Andhra Pradesh Revenue Minister
Participating in the National Workshop on land survey under Digital India Land Records Modernization Programme (DILRMP) in Guntur alongside Union Minister of State for Rural Development Pemmasani Chandra Sekhar, Andhra Pradesh Revenue Minister Anagani Satya Prasad asserted that the State is now conducting the resurvey of lands in a systematic and transparent manner. On the occasion, on Thursday, he criticized the previous YSRCP government in Andhra Pradesh for carrying out the resurvey hastily and inaccurately across 6,688 villages, which led to widespread complaints from landowners. Issues included errors in land boundaries, ownership names, land classification, and reduced land measurements, causing significant dissatisfaction among farmers and landholders. Minister Satya Prasad alleged that the previous administration ignored Central government guidelines requiring advance notice and participation of landowners during the resurvey. In some cases, surveys were influenced by local YSRCP leaders to benefit their affiliates. To address grievances, the current government organized gram sabhas in all completed resurvey villages, receiving over 2.8 lakh complaints — every one of which has been resolved, the Minister said. Since January 20, the NDA government has completed error-free resurvey in 628 villages and is currently working in 758 more as part of the second phase. He assured that the entire resurvey across Andhra Pradesh will be completed by 2027 and pledged protection for the rights of the poor residing in free-hold lands.
