  • Activity Report for the Year 2013-14
    THE ROLE OF REVENUE & DISASTER MANAGEMENT DEPARTMENT Revenue administration is closely associated with the all round development of the State and the prosperity of its people. Land is an important source of livelihood of people and their shelter. Revenue administration touches individuals and is concerned with their problems. The activities of the Revenue Department are not merely confined to solving people’s problems relating to land; these also include providing land to the landless and protecting the Government land. This Department shoulders the responsibility of providing immediate relief to the people affected by natural calamities such as floods, droughts, cyclones, hailstorms, earthquakes, fire accidents, etc. It also takes initiatives for rehabilitation and restoration work. In the matter of transfer of property, particularly the transfer of immovable property, the Registration Offices play a key role in serving people and contributing to the resources of the State by collecting Registration Fee and Stamp Duty. Distribution of Government wasteland for agriculture/ homestead purposes, distribution of ceiling surplus land, prohibition of tribal land alienation, computerisation of Registration and Tehsil Offices, updating of land records and conversion/ regularisation of pre-1980 forest villages and encroached human habitations in forest areas, preparation and distribution of Land Pass Books and formulation of comprehensive rehabilitation and resettlement policy for displaced persons are a few noteworthy programmes of this Department. Appropriate steps are being taken to make Revenue Administration more effective and responsive to the public. The important activities and achievements of this Department during the year 2013-2014 are indicated below: 1. National Land Records Modernization Programme (NLRMP) The National Land Records Modernization Programme (NLRMP), a Centrally Sponsored Scheme which aims at developing a modern, comprehensive and transparent land records management system is being implemented in the State since 2009-10.

Under its Annual Action Plan 2019-20, all the districts of Odisha have been taken up for the survey. This Industrial Potentiality Survey Report of Khordha district covers various parameters like socio- economic indicators, present industrial structure of the district and availability of industrial clusters, problems and prospects in the district for industrial development with special emphasis on scope for setting up of potential MSMEs. The report provides useful information and a detailed idea of the industrial potentialities of the district. I hope this Industrial Potentiality Survey Report would be an effective tool to the existing and prospective entrepreneurs, financial institutions and promotional agencies while planning for development of MSME sector in the district. I would like to place on record my appreciation for Sri B. K. Moharana, Asst. Director (EI) of this Institute for his concerted efforts to prepare this report for the benefit of entrepreneurs and professionals in the state.
