Civic body officials said property records of the civic bodies were kept manually and the move comes in a bid to preserve the old ones which are not in a very good state.

“Some of the old ones have started deteriorating. To preserve these years-old records, this move has been initiated,” a South corporation official said

Once digitised, the property records will be uploaded on the websites of the corporations. So individuals won’t have to visit the corporation office to get information regarding any particular property as they can get it from the comfort of their own homes.

The facility to access data online will also be available to various government agencies and organisations who need information regarding any property from the civic agencies.

“The new digitised plans will also have necessary data regarding a particular plot, nearby plots, all their layout plans along with details of the particular colony and the area,” the official said.
