The prime minister is right in describing the intiative to digitise the country's land record system as transformation, both for the economy and the people. Speaking at the launch of the degitised land record system and cadastral map of islamabad showing the extent, value and ownership of land, particularly for taxation purposes, he reiterated the government plans to digitise the land revenue record in three major cities Karachi, Lahore and Islamabad by November this year and then in the rest of the country in six months for improved administration and governance of the real estate sector and construction industry. If the government successfully meets the deadlines it has set for itself, it would bring a major shift in the economy and drastically reduce land conflicts that are responsible for almost half the litigation burden that our frail civil and criminal justice system must shoulder.
