HYDERABAD: The state government is set to revamp Stamps and Registrations offices across the state, equipping them with state-of-the-art facilities on par with corporate standards, Revenue and Housing Minister Ponguleti Srinivasa Reddy announced on Saturday.
As part of this initiative, foundation stones will soon be laid for nine integrated registration office complexes in four districts, following approval from Chief Minister A Revanth Reddy. The overhaul aims to streamline registration services and improve public access through modern infrastructure.
The announcement was made during a high-level review meeting at the Secretariat, attended by Revenue department Principal Secretary DS Lokesh Kumar, Inspector General of Stamps and Registrations Rajeev Hanumanthu, and other senior officials.
He directed officials to align the reorganisation with the chief minister’s broader vision of efficient and citizen-centric governance. He emphasised the need to plan integrated registration offices within the Outer Ring Road, keeping future urban demands in view. He also called for close coordination with collectors to ensure smooth execution of the project.
Of the 144 sub-registrar offices currently operating in Telangana, only 37 function from government-owned buildings. The state has now taken an in-principle decision to construct two integrated offices in Hyderabad, three each in Rangareddy and Medchal districts, and one in Patancheru.
Each integrated complex will house multiple sub-registrar offices, enabling better distribution of workload and enhancing operational efficiency.
In the first phase, construction will begin at the Telangana Academy of Land Information and Management (TALIM) campus in Gachibowli. This complex will accommodate the sub-registrar offices of Gandipet, Serilingampally, Rajendranagar, and Balanagar.
The new facilities will complement the government’s recent reforms, including the introduction of an online slot booking system and the sharing of sub-registrar office workloads for non-agricultural property registrations — both aimed at reducing delays.
