Over the last one and a half decades, India has made significant strides in modernising land records through the intervention of technology. From addressing legacy disputes to distributing digital property cards, various schemes have been formulated to govern the country's land resources, many of which have their roots in colonial times. The diverse land systems and laws across Indian states, many of which date back to the pre-independence period, play a significant role in shaping the implementation of these schemes. The century-old acts and laws are constantly being juxtaposed against modern technology to meet the commitments made under each such scheme.
