Jammu: The Jammu and Kashmir Government has resumed the process of mutation attestation and directed the concerned authorities to ensure that pending and fresh mutation cases are disposed of within seven days.
The decision is aimed at providing relief to people facing delays in land-related revenue matters and ensuring faster delivery of public services. Mutation attestation is an important process through which changes in land ownership are officially recorded in government revenue records following a sale, inheritance, gift or other legally recognised transfer.
Under the latest directions, the concerned revenue officials have been instructed to process mutation cases within the prescribed seven-day timeline. The move is expected to streamline revenue administration, reduce unnecessary delays and make land-related services more accessible to the public.
The resumption of mutation attestation is particularly significant for property owners, farmers and families awaiting updates to their land records. Timely processing of such cases can help people complete property-related formalities and avoid prolonged administrative difficulties.
The government has emphasised the need for accountability and timely disposal of public matters, with the latest directions intended to improve transparency and efficiency in the revenue department.
The development is expected to bring relief to residents across Jammu and Kashmir who have been waiting for their mutation cases to be processed.
