Karnataka Revenue Minister Krishna Byre Gowda has unveiled plans for the formation of a district-level Special Investigation Team (SIT) to identify forest and revenue lands. This initiative is aimed at addressing the long-standing challenges faced by farmers due to land classification issues.

Inaugurating the Mulki taluk Administrative Centre 'Praja Soudha', Gowda emphasized that the government is committed to resolving land-related hardships on a priority basis. Joint surveys are being conducted to demarcate past granted lands to farmers, with instructions issued to expedite the process across districts.

Furthermore, state land records have been digitized for public access, significantly reducing bureaucratic hurdles.
