Rajiv Bajpayee, Lucknow. It will not be easy to commit fraud in the purchase and sale of land. Now no land will be registered without Aadhaar. A new system is going to be implemented from February 1, under which the system of Aadhaar authentication during registry has been made mandatory.
Land mafia or fraudsters will not be able to sell someone's land on the basis of fake witnesses and fake identity cards unless the process is ignored. In view of the fact that fraud was being done in the registries for a long time, the government has taken this decision. On behalf of Uttar Pradesh Inspector General of Registration, Neha Sharma, a government order has been sent to all the Assistant Inspector General of Registration and instructions have been given to implement the new system in the registry from February 1. Lucknow's Assistant Inspector General of Registration II Ramesh Kumar said that now under the new Uttar Pradesh Online Document Registration Rules, 2024, the identity of the land seller, buyer and witnesses will be established 'biometrically'.
Only Aadhaar based e-signature on documents will get legal recognition. First all the details will be entered online through the software. On the day of registry, the thumb impressions of the parties and witnesses will be matched directly with the Aadhaar database. If the thumb of the person doing the registration is not matching with the Aadhaar, the system will immediately inform. After biometric verification, the photo will be uploaded on the portal on the spot.
In the process till now, there was no system for verification of whatever records were presented by the buyer-seller and witnesses regarding identification. This was the reason why the identity cards presented before the sub-registrars were forwarded without any investigation. Because of this, there was a possibility of mistakes in the process and registrations were done with fake IDs. Now with the new system such frauds can be completely controlled. In fact, the plan to link Aadhaar with the registry was being talked about for many years. On August 25 last year, Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath, while reviewing the Stamp and Registration Department, had given instructions to take immediate steps to stop the frauds taking place in the registries. In Lucknow alone, in the last one year, more than two dozen registry cases have been registered on the basis of fake identity cards. In one case, the accused was lodged in Varanasi jail and the registry was done in his name in Lucknow.
Shine City director Amitabh Srivastava, lodged in Varanasi jail, would come to Lucknow Registration Office on 24 August 2022 and get registered. Police investigation revealed that Amitabh had not come to Lucknow from jail that day. Not just one but dozens of such cases were detected in which registrations were done using fake identity cards and with the connivance of officers.
