Madhya Pradesh Chief Minister Dr Mohan Yadav has launched a major property registration campaign under the Mukhyamantri Registry Yojana, aiming to provide legal ownership rights to rural families across the state.
The initiative was launched at Karua village in Morena district on the auspicious occasion of Dhanteras, where the Chief Minister distributed ownership documents to beneficiaries and interacted with villagers.
The state government has set an ambitious target of completing 50 lakh free property registrations across Madhya Pradesh, ensuring that rural residents receive legally recognised ownership documents for their houses and properties.
Free Property Registration to Empower Rural Families
Addressing the gathering, CM Mohan Yadav said that obtaining registered ownership documents for rural properties had remained a major challenge since Independence.
He explained that many villagers had invested lakhs of rupees in constructing permanent houses but lacked registered property documents. As a result, they often faced difficulties obtaining bank loans against their properties.
Under the new initiative, the government will facilitate free registration of eligible properties, giving villagers stronger legal ownership rights and greater financial security.
Property Documents to Open Doors to Bank Loans
The Chief Minister highlighted that registered property documents would benefit not only the current generation but also future generations.
He said that young people aspiring to become doctors, engineers or entrepreneurs would be able to use their property documents to access bank loans and establish businesses, hospitals or nursing homes.
CM Yadav also praised revenue department officials, tehsildars and patwaris for their efforts in completing the registration process.
CM Announces Secondary School for Karua Village
During his visit, the Chief Minister announced that the existing primary school in Karua village would be upgraded to a secondary school.
He also interacted with beneficiaries who expressed happiness over receiving registered ownership documents without paying registration charges. Some beneficiaries said the government had even covered registration expenses worth approximately Rs 89,000.
Focus on Farmers' Income and Rural Development
Highlighting the government's commitment to farmers' welfare, CM Yadav said the state was observing the Year of Farmers' Welfare, with a focus on increasing agricultural income and promoting dairy farming.
He also spoke about government subsidies for farmers purchasing 25 cows or buffaloes, stating that eligible beneficiaries could receive financial assistance of up to Rs 10 lakh.
The Chief Minister additionally highlighted initiatives related to rural transportation, irrigation, livestock development and educational support for meritorious students.
Patwaris and Revenue Officials Honoured
CM Mohan Yadav honoured several patwaris and tehsildars for their outstanding contribution to the Swamitva Yojana. Officials who completed more than 200 registrations were recognised for their dedication.
The initiative aims to transform rural property ownership by providing legal documentation, improving access to institutional credit and strengthening the financial security of village households.
The government's message is clear: A house should not just be a place to live, but an asset with legally recognised ownership rights.
