Farmers
 

1. Farmers can quickly get their land records from Kiosks and are
   protected from harassment and extortion. As against time delay of 3 to
   30 days they now get their records in less than 2 minutes. No
   overhead cost is to be incurred. No application is required to be
   submitted at the kiosk. The records are authentic and legible. Use of
   biometrics authentication system for updation of records have freed
   farmers from the worry of probable manipulation of their records by
   some times some unscrupulous officials.
    
2. They can lodge application for mutation (change in land title) to their
   land records at the mutation kiosks, get acknowledgement for the
   same and can monitor the progress using touch screen kiosks
   available in some Bhoomi centers. They would then get their updated
   land record in a fixed time frame without the need of approaching any
   authority. As against earlier time of 70-200 days, mutation would now
   require less than 35 days.
    
3. Farmers can also get the official status report of their request for
   mutation which would let them know the stage at which their request
   is pending. This status report would help them in enforcing their right
   of getting the record mutated in the prescribed time.
    
4. Access to farm credit would now be less cumbersome. Online
   connectivity to banks would ensure farm credit to farmers in less than
   5 days as against 25-30 days in manual system.
    
5. It would be easier for the farmers to pursue land related litigation in
   the court.

2. Support for development programs, based on valuable land records
   data like various crops grown in a village or a sub district, the fertilizers

   etc.,

  adjudicating various civil disputes related to ownership, possession
  and cultivation in various courts.
