"We have issued instructions to the officials to ensure that e-Khatas are issued to people within 20 days of submitting applications. Discussions have been held with the officials of the city corporation, revenue department, and the department of urban land records towards setting right problems encountered in correcting the mistakes in the records. He said that a proposal will soon be tabled towards sorting out problems concerned," he stated.
