The Central government’s ambitious National Geo-Spatial Knowledge Based Land Survey of Urban Habitation (NAKSHA) pilot project will be implemented for three urban local bodies in Goa.
The project, aimed at modernizing urban land records using advanced Geo-Spatial technologies, is set for nationwide launch on February 18.
In Goa, the project will be rolled out in three urban local bodies, the Corporation of the City of Panaji, Margao Municipal Council, and Cuncolim Municipal Council. These three are among 150 urban local bodies identified by the Centre for pilot implementation.
NAKSHA is an initiative by the Dept of Land Resources under the Ministry of Rural Development. The project is designed to create and update accurate documentation of land ownership, helping resolve land Disputes, streamline property records and enhance urban planning.
The project is fully funded by the Centre with an estimated cost of Rs 194 crore.
