11. Situation Before the Initiative
Erstwhile, in the state before Meebhoomi
initiative, the entire Land Records data was
centralized at each Tehsil office and the data
was maintained at local offices only. There
was no authentication process for access of
the data to the data owner and following
were the issues with system:

12.  Manual records
 Data insecurity
 Fake Pattadar passbooks
 Duplicate beneficiaries
 Fake registrations on Land
 Citizen inconvenience due to multiple visits to government
offices.
 No proper grievance mechanism
 Data inconsistency
 Manipulations
 Malpractices
Situation Before the Initiative

15. Strategy Adopted
The details of base line study done: Government of Andhra
Pradesh started leveraging technology to computerize the manual
Land Records that let to the implementation of reforms in the
existing system. For effective management of land records and to
deliver land related G2C services to the public and also to keep
land records up to date “Webland” was launched.
After successful launch of Webland, it was noticed that there are
several discrepancies in the Web land data compared to the field
data since the data in Webland was ported from LRMS (Land
record Management system) data. Further, there was delay in
update of records. Instructions were issued to the field level
functionaries from time to time on the steps to be taken for
updating the land records.

16. Problems identified: Land records database is specially designed for
the convenience of rural Population land owners to cater to issues
regarding:
 Manual Records
 Data inaccuracy
 Data authentication
 Multiple visits to citizens
 Large number of corrections
 Manual processing of records
 No integration with departments for single source of truth
 No mechanism to identify fake beneficiaries
 Non–availability of data for seeding of Aadhaardetails.
Strategy Adopted

17. Roll out/implementation model
Before Webland initiative, land records in Andhra Pradesh were
available in Tehsil Offices in a decentralized mode and database
licenses were required for each Tehsil office. There were no tools to
monitor the accuracy of data and there was lack of availability of
technical personnel at the Mandal level. No uniform Land codes were
adopted by Tahsildars and data was neither reusable nor interoperable
with other departments’ data.
To overcome these challenges, web land was designed with idea of
delivery of citizen centric services and entire database was ported to
State data centre which is located in the SHQ (State Headquarters) with
the digital sign of concerned officer and the same was made available
to public as “ MeeBhoomi”
The following broad strategies adopted before initiating project:
Inter departmental coordination meetings - Meetings with key
Departments to take them on board at the very inception.

18. Digitization of Manual Records &Centralizing the data – Earlier,
land records were in the physical forms and digitized data was
hosted at local Tehsil offices. The same has been digitizedin the form
of centralized data.
Strengthening hardware - To strengthen the local administration,
Tahsil offices procured hardware such as PCs, laptops, Printers and
Scanners to all the tehsil offices across the state necessary IT
infrastructure is made available at State Data Center to cater the
needs.
Training and workshops to the officials at State, Block, Mandanlevels
Project Management Unit at State level for solving queries and
handling grievances
Several other steps were initiated which resulted in 96% purification
of land records in the State of Andhra Pradesh. The following are the
initiatives for the step wise improvements in purification of Land
records.
Roll out/implementation model

20. Rectification Module – Provision for Tahsildars to rectify mistakes.
About 60 lakhs of corrections were carried out by the thasildars

tokens and with this system there is no chance for data tampering.

reduced visits to government offices, accuracy on the data and werealso saved from the
financial expenses. Citizen need not to go for government offices multiple times to know status
on grievance which reduced corruption as well.
