Babushahi Bureau
Moga (Punjab), April 4, 2026: In a major relief for farmers and landowners, Punjab Chief Minister Bhagwant Mann has announced a new scheme to ensure time-bound division of land holdings, aiming to curb delays and corruption in the process.
Addressing a rally at the grain market in Moga, the Chief Minister said that land partition (takseem) has long been a major issue in the agricultural sector, forcing people to make repeated visits to revenue offices and, in many cases, pay bribes to get their work done.
To address this, Mann unveiled the ‘30 Days Partition Scheme’, which will come into effect from April 13, coinciding with the festival of Vaisakhi.
Under the scheme, cases where all family members mutually agree— including siblings and extended family—will be resolved within 30 days. Applicants can submit requests at tehsil offices or through patwaris for initiating the process.
The Chief Minister further stated that patwaris and tehsildars will visit villages themselves to complete formalities, including obtaining signatures from all concerned parties, ensuring a smoother and faster process.
For disputed cases, individuals will be required to present court orders, based on which the land division will be carried out. Mann urged citizens to avoid unnecessary legal expenses and instead resolve disputes amicably to benefit from the scheme.
He expressed confidence that most land partition cases across Punjab would be cleared before the upcoming paddy season and next sowing cycle, adding that the initiative would significantly reduce corruption and public inconvenience.
