PM Modi to Distribute 58 Lakh Property Cards in Rural Areas Under SVAMITVA Scheme

On December 26, 2024, Prime Minister Narendra Modi will launch a significant initiative under the SVAMITVA scheme, distributing 58 lakh property cards across more than 50,000 villages in 12 states and Union Territories. This virtual event, which marks the latest milestone in the scheme, is expected to have a transformative impact on rural India. These property cards will provide a “Record of Rights” for property owners in the village Abadi areas, ensuring legal clarity, reducing property disputes, and facilitating the use of these properties as financial assets.

The SVAMITVA scheme, launched in 2020, aims to create and digitize land records in rural areas that were previously left undocumented. It focuses on demarcating and mapping village Abadi areas using drone technology. This not only helps in resolving ownership issues but also boosts rural property owners’ access to financial services such as bank loans. As a result, property cards issued under this scheme are now recognized by financial institutions for loan purposes. This is particularly beneficial for women, who often struggle to establish ownership rights, as the scheme ensures their properties are officially recognized. The distribution will be conducted virtually, with PM Modi addressing the event, and Union Ministers in various states will also be present to distribute the property cards locally. In Rajasthan, Union Ministers such as Shivraj Singh Chouhan, JP Nadda, and Bhupender Yadav will participate in events in cities like Jodhpur and Jaipur. In Maharashtra, Union Minister Piyush Goyal will attend events in Ahilya Nagar and Pune, while other ministers will attend events across Punjab, Jammu & Kashmir, and Madhya Pradesh.

The distribution of these property cards is more than just a documentation exercise. It plays a crucial role in empowering rural residents, giving them formal recognition of their property rights. It enables them to leverage their land as collateral for loans, enhancing their financial inclusion and economic growth opportunities. This initiative also supports village-level planning, as accurately mapped land helps identify spaces for infrastructure development and community projects. So far, more than 2.19 crore property cards have been finalized, with 92% of drone mapping completed. The project aims to cover over 3.44 lakh villages, with full completion expected by 2026. This initiative is a significant step toward rural development and digitization, with far-reaching benefits for farmers, landowners, and communities across India. However, challenges remain, as some states like West Bengal, Bihar, and Meghalaya have yet to join the scheme. By providing clarity, security, and financial opportunities to rural property owners, the SVAMITVA scheme is expected to be a game-changer in the rural development landscape, fostering economic stability and growth.
