Minister wants officials to focus on rectification of errors in the land registration portal
Finance and Health Minister T. Harish Rao has asked the officials concerned to evolve new modules that can further strengthen the land registration processes through Dharani portal besides rectification of the errors that crept in while entering the records.
The Minister said though effective modules and options catering to the needs of the people were incorporated in Dharani, lack of awareness on these was resulting in non-redressal of grievances of the people. Officials concerned should therefore conduct an orientation programme on the portal, modules and options for officials and Mee Seva operators at the district level to educate them about the processes.
“We are judges and therefore, cannot act like Mughals of a bygone era ... the writ courts in the guise of doing justice cannot transcend the barriers of law,” the High Court of Karnataka observed while setting aside an order of a single judge, who in 2016 had extended the lease of a public premises allotted to a physically challenged person to 20 years contrary to 12-year period stipulated in the law.
The High Court of Karnataka on Monday declined to interfere, at present, in the investigation against a Bharatiya Janata Party worker, who is among the accused persons facing charges of circulating obscene clips, related to “morphed” images and videos clips related to Prajwal Revanna, former Hassan MP, in public domain through pen drives and other modes.
