Land revenue offices in Tulsipur, Ghorahi begin restoring records
DANG: The land revenue offices in Tulsipur and Ghorahi, sub-metropolises in Dang district, have begun restoring records destroyed by arson during the Gen-Z protests. They have issued notices to reconstruct the burnt files and establish new registers.
Shantaraj Gautam, Nayab Subba and Information Officer at the Tulsipur office, said landowners must submit originals and photocopies of their land ownership and citizenship certificates, the current fiscal year’s tax receipt and photocopy, and, where applicable, authorisation from any body that froze the land.
If an owner’s original certificate matches the office’s records, the system printout is certified, and a new register is created.
Where discrepancies arise, details will be cross-checked against the Document Management System and updated in the Land Revenue Information Management System (LRIMS) before certification.
Should neither source match, the office will verify against archived Tameli files, update LRIMS accordingly, certify the printout and register the new record.
Gautam added that unresolved cases will be referred to the Case Division once repairs to the damaged buildings are complete.
Both offices were vandalised and set alight, destroying all documents. Services now operate from a few intact rooms, with over 40,000 individual land records lost in Tulsipur alone.
