Online Land Revenue Payment System Introduced In Odisha

Bhubaneswar: On the occasion of 73^rd Independence Day, Odisha Chief Minister Naveen Patnaik inaugurated the much-awaited online land revenue payment system from the Loka Seva Bhavan in Bhubaneswar today.

The new system will come to the rescue of people including farmers who earlier had to face difficulties in paying their land revenue.

“This system would provide great relief to farmers who had to run to various government offices to pay land revenue,” Patnaik said.

The online land revenue payment system has been developed by NIC Bhubaneswar. As the system is simple, farmers can make payments within minutes and get receipts. This is the first of its kind initiative by the Revenue department under the Odisha government’s 5-T mantra to provide better services to the people.

CM Naveen also dedicated Mahatma Gandhi’s Talisman at the Loka Seva Bhavan as a part of Mahatma Gandhi’s 150^th birth anniversary celebrations.

Gandhi’s Talisman is inscribed on a brass plate in both English and Odia and it also carries a portrait of the Father of the Nation.

CM Naveen Patnaik had also inaugurated Kharavel Bhavan which will house 11 departments of the State government. The new building has been constructed at an estimated cost of Rs 128 crore.
