GOVT DIRECTS DCs TO TAKE STRICT ACTION AGAINST THE CORRUPT OFFICIALS
CHANDIGARH: Drawing a list of 370 "corrupt patwaris" and 170 private individuals functioning as their subordinates across 21 districts, the Haryana government has asked deputy commissioners to initiate stringent action against them. A patwari is a revenue official who maintains the ownership record of land and is authorised to certify possession of land, mutation, corrections in land record etc.
Revenue minister Vipul Goel said that identification of corrupt revenue officials and initiation of stringent action against patwaris was a conscious decision of the state government. "The government wants to check their misconduct and corrupt practices in larger public interest," Goel said.
