More than 13 lakh land dispute cases resolved so far under Yogi Adityanath Government
Uttar Pradesh has witnessed a sharp decline in disputes related to agricultural and non-agricultural land as well as revenue collection, in the last four and a half years of the Yogi Adityanath0 Government in the state. The reason behind this has been largely the expedition of the digitalisation process in rural areas and the simplification of the revenue collection procedures on the instructions of Chief Minister Yogi.
The Yogi Government started online Heritage Campaign to free villagers from unnecessary land disputes. So far, a total of 13,52,210 cases related to land disputes have been settled through this drive.
The Government also started the Swamitva Yojana (Gharauni) to get villagers their land ownership rights and empower them. Gharauni is done in the name of a female member of the family in order to protect rural women. The Government has distributed rural residential records (Gharauni) to 2,74, 677 land owners in 2006 villages of the state.
In order to empower the landless farmers in rural areas, the Government has also distributed 6371.883 hectares of agricultural land belonging to village societies to 26,149 landless people.
Furthermore, 577 hectares of land has been given to 72,264 families while ponds spread over an area of 24071.685 hectares has been allotted to fishermen. Besides, 9106 hectares of land has been allotted to 7,438 pottery artists.
Soon after coming to power, the Yogi Government simplified the rules to declare agricultural land as non-agricultural land to speed up the industrialisation process. The provision of declaring an agricultural land as a non-agricultural land was implemented in view of the potential use of land for five years. The step has benefited farmers a lot.
The rules and regulations for leasing out private land in the state were also simplified. Now, account holders can lease out their land for 15 years for agricultural work and 30 years for solar energy. The Yogi Government has taken several steps in the last four and a half years to make life in UP’s villages easy through better infrastructure and improve the quality of life of the rural folk.

What monkey fled with a bag containing evidence in it: Read full story
The court, generally, considers a person who commit a crime and the one who destroys the evidence, as criminals in the eyes of law. But what if an animal destroys the evidence of a crime committed by a human.
In a peculiar incident in Rajasthan, a monkey fled away with the evidence collected by the police in a murder case. The stolen evidence included the murder weapon (a blood-stained knife).
The incident came to light when the police appeared before the court and they had to provide the evidence in the hearing.
The hearing was about the crime which took place in September 2016, in which a person named Shashikant Sharma died at a primary health center under Chandwaji police station. After the body was found, the deceased’s relatives blocked the Jaipur-Delhi highway, demanding an inquiry into the matter.
Following the investigation, the police had arrested Rahul Kandera and Mohanlal Kandera, residents of Chandwaji in relation to the murder. But, when the time came to produce the evidence related to the case, it was found that the police had no evidence with them because a monkey had stolen it from them.
In the court, the police said that the knife, which was the primary evidence, was also taken by the monkey. The cops informed that the evidence of the case was kept in a bag, which was being taken to the court.
The evidence bag contained the knife and 15 other important evidences. However, due to the lack of space in the malkhana, a bag full of evidence was kept under a tree, which led to the incident.
