Earlier,
peoples were able to collect different records of land such as SA, CS, BRS Copy
/ Porcha / Khatian / Certified copies etc from the Union Parishad Digital
Center after a week of application. But now people will be able to get the PDF copy
of RS Khotian of land in just 5 minutes through online. The Land Ministry of
the Government of Bangladesh has recently launched this online system.
Khatian
is a type of document about the land identity. The official document containing
the details of the land which is prepared by the government survey is known as Khatian.
In Khotian there is a clear description of the landowner's name, father's name,
address, ownership details, land area, name of mouza, serial number (JL
number), boundary, land category, occupier's name, portion, etc. When a copy of
Khatian is made on a separate paper sheet is called Porcha.
The
Khatina is a very important land related document. If anybody wants to buy land
then he must verify the design made during the survey, exact land area, mouza, khatian
and daag (plot) numbers. The buyer must verify the porcha. After purchasing any
land the khatian / porcha may be required any time. Any problem with the
Khaitan or Porcha may hinder the ownership sale of land. So any problem with this
kind of documents must be fixed. Identification of land is required to
determine the ownership which is very important. Khatiyan is required to
collect pay development tax, proof of occupation, transfer, ease of dispute
settlement, preserve land ownership history, share land, account, class, etc
for the purpose of verification of land sale.
The
previous method of withdrawal of Khatian in Bangladesh:
Earlier
after applying at the district land head office, it took about one to two
months to get a handwritten certified Khatian copy after inspection. Brokers or
intermediaries took this opportunity to deliver Khotians for money. They used
to get hundreds of thousands of money from ordinary people who need that
important document.
In
order to relieve the sufferings as a pilot project the Assistant Deputy
Commissioner of Jessore Mr. Mustafizur Rahman took initiative to provide land khatian
/ porcha through online application. After success of this pilot project in
Jessore, later in November of the same year, initiatives were taken to provide
the service through counters, server room setup in the remaining 63 districts
of Bangladesh. In that case, the applicant had to go to the district land headquarters.
Next
year the application process started from the Information Service Center of the
Union Parishad digital center. Later the E-Land Record Service (ELRS) system
was introduced as a pilot project in thirty Union Information Services Centers under
Sirajganj district. After getting positive feedback from the users, the
Ministry of Land launched the service from all the Union Parishad Digital
Information Centers across the country.
The
RSK (R S Khatian) method:
Although
the application was made from the Union Information Service Center through ELRS
system, there was not any immediate system to get the Khatian / Porcha copy. After
one week it had to be collected from the Information Services Center.
Considering some of the situations, the complexity and longevity of obtaining Khatian,
costing, reducing broker’s problems, making geostationary services more
transparent and accountable and to provide easy service which would be
accessible to all, Initiatives have been taken to implement the RSK system
thorough the whole country.
With
the help of the a2i project under direct supervision of the Prime Minister's
Office the RS Khatiyan (RSK) Online Opening Program was inaugurated at the
Secretariat on February 23, 2019 with the slogan 'Hater Muthoy Khatian'. Now
this service can be obtained through online at land.gov.bd or rsk.land.gov.bd
or www.minland.gov.bd or via the RS
Khotian mobile app.
There
are approximately 61,500 mouzas (except three hill tract districts) in the
country. Of these, the survey of 41,000 mouzas has been completed. Nearly 1,64,00000
RS Khotians of 32,000 Mouzar's has been uploaded online. Survey activities are
an ongoing process and the remaining khatians will be uploaded soon on the
server. Also after completing the survey, the final Gazette of Khotians will be
uploaded. As a result people will no longer need to run at the Land Office or
DC Office to get an online or certified copy of Khatian.
