ACS Verma outlined that under the guidance of Punjab Chief Minister S. Bhagwant Singh Mann, the Department of Revenue and Rehabilitation is working on several reform initiatives. These initiatives are designed to simplify the registration process, enhance transparency, and improve accountability, ensuring timely delivery of registered deeds and documents.
