Telangana Revenue Minister pushes Collectors to expedite land rights applications

Telangana Revenue Minister Ponguleti has issued directives to district collectors across the state to fast-track the disposal of pending Section 22-A applications, underscoring the need for streamlined land rights verification processes.

The minister emphasized that legitimate landowners should not face repeated visits to multiple government offices merely to prove and establish their rightful claims to property. The directive reflects growing concerns about unnecessary delays in land-related administrative procedures affecting citizens across the state.

Section 22-A applications typically pertain to land records and ownership verification matters handled at the district revenue office level. By pushing for priority clearance of these cases, the minister aims to reduce the administrative burden on citizens seeking to formalize their land rights.

The move aligns with broader efforts by the Telangana government to improve service delivery in revenue and land administration departments. Officials have been asked to review pending applications systematically and dispose of cases based on merit and documentary evidence provided by applicants.
