Two-thirds of Tahsildars await repatriation since Assembly polls
Hyderabad: Two-thirds of the Mandal Revenue Officers (MROs), also known as Tahsildars, who were deployed to new districts during the Assembly polls in 2023, are still awaiting repatriation to their previous working districts. Out of more than 300 officials affected, fewer than a hundred have been transferred back to their original postings, with the remainder continuing to wait. This marks the first instance in Telangana where these officials, who anticipated repatriation within months, have continued to serve in their newly allocated districts. 'In the past, repatriation occurred not only in Telangana but also in the unified Andhra Pradesh within days of the polls,' informed official sources. 'Similar to the present state of Andhra Pradesh, during the YSR's time, all officials were repatriated in a single stroke of a pen. However, this time, despite most applying, the government has failed to pay heed, except for a few.' Interestingly, among those who have been repatriated to 'worthwhile' mandals, some are now unwilling to return to their original places, thus complicating the case for the majority who wish to return. For instance, one Tahsildar has applied for a key mandal like Bhadrachalam from a smaller mandal. Scores have opted for Khammam from neighbouring, less significant mandals. In southern Telangana, an official has applied for Nagarkurnool from a smaller mandal. 'There could be around 40 to 50 who wish to stay back. The big mandals are much sought after. Those who were posted in Rangareddy and Medchal do not wish to yield,' said an official posted within the city. The official clarified that the government is not keen on transferring Tahsildars to native districts, with non-native districts subject to vacancy availability. Meanwhile, some officials who were astute enough to manage staying back and working in local collectorates during the elections have received 'rewarding' posts. 'There is a feeling of injustice amongst those who left their places during polls. Some officials are enjoying at native places, while most are suffering in far-away places. The government is not ready to transfer at this juncture,' added the official. Disturbingly, some MROs have retired while still waiting for repatriation. One official, despite applying on health grounds, could not get approval from higher authorities. In an application to the CCLA (Chief Commissioner of Land Administration), the official, who was posted approximately 150 km from the State Capital and undergoing treatment at a corporate hospital following surgery, urged the Commissioner to be retained in the previously allotted district.

A.P. govt. releases new Revenue Manual aimed at streamlining land laws
In a landmark step towards consolidating and simplifying the complex land laws and administrative procedures, the government on Thursday announced the successful compilation and release of a comprehensive Revenue Manual which, according to an official release, is aimed at providing a definitive, legally guided roadmap to eliminating drudgery, deviation and ignorance in implementing the laws, including the crucial aspects of settlements, assignments, land acquisition and Record of Rights. The Revenue Manual was drafted under the leadership of the Chief Commissioner of Land Administration (CCLA) G. Jayalakshmi and Additional CCLA-cum-Secretary (Revenue Department) N. Prabhakara Reddy, who chaired the Revenue Manual Committee, on being instructed by the Chief Minister N. Chandrababu Naidu and Revenue Minister Anagani Satya Prasad to do the much-needed streamlining of the land laws. Benefits The key impacts and benefits of the new Revenue Manual are consolidation of knowledge — it serves as a ready reckoner for revenue officers; enhanced clarity & simplification — it has laid down a simplified framework of legal and administrative procedures related to the land laws; improved service delivery — contains comprehensive guidelines and clear procedures that facilitate speedy and accurate delivery of the services; empowerment of functionaries — the manual equips theemployees with a legally guided roadmap that helps them avoid legal challenges and empowers them to perform their duties with greater confidence and precision; and foundation for digital transformation— it is designed as a foundational repository for future technological advancements, including the development of chatbots, FAQs, automation, and voice-based interactive solutions. Complexity The release stated that the revenue administration in Andhra Pradesh has historically been characterised by profound complexity stemming from its 19th-century origins in the British Administration of Madras Presidency. This system underwent numerous transformations over 150 years and continued to evolve rapidly post independence to align with the democratic aspirations and socialist ideals enshrined in the Constitution. This intricate backdrop was further complicated by the issuance of countless executive instructions, necessitating the integration of historical land tenurial systems with modern revenue laws, settlement laws, and all relevant executive directives. The sheer enormity and paramount nature of this task resulted in revenue functionaries being in a big state of chaos due to the fragmented and often contradictory nature of existing records and guidelines, and critical gaps in the administration, which left both the officers and citizens without a clear and coherent understanding of land laws. The Revenue Manual was brought out to address these serious challenges and establish a settled understanding of land laws.

Conduct Mega PTM in flawless manner: Collector to officials
Kurnool: District Collector P Ranjit Basha has directed officials to organise the upcoming Mega Parents-Teachers Meeting 2.0 on July 10 in a prestigious and flawless manner across all government and private schools, as well as junior colleges in the district. Addressing officials in a teleconference on Tuesday with sub-collectors, RDOs, constituency and mandal special officers, MPDOs, tahsildars, municipal commissioners and education officers, the Collector emphasised the importance of inviting public representatives, parents and alumni to the programme. He instructed that only the approved event backdrop be used, and that uniforms, saplings, and holistic report cards be distributed to all educational institutions by the afternoon of July 9. The Collector also ordered seamless arrangements, including midday meals, public address systems, school beautification, and tents. The Collector also reviewed complaints under the 'Talli Ki Vandanam' scheme related to Aadhaar linking errors, ration card issues, and land ownership discrepancies, and directed officials to resolve all such grievances by Tuesday evening. He insisted that no eligible beneficiary under the scheme should be missed and instructed the Joint Collector and tahsildars to coordinate efforts for comprehensive redressal of complaints. In regard to the P4 Policy, the Collector stressed the need to complete the adoption of 50,701 'Bangaru Kutumbalu' (Golden Families) within 10 days.

Industrialists, professionals and employees were encouraged to come forward and contribute to the initiative. On the PM Surya Ghar Scheme, the Collector expressed concern over low implementation - only 652 of the 8,483 registered applications have been completed. He ordered power department officials to expedite progress and directed the SE of SPDCL to issue show-cause notices to AEs in six mandals who showed zero progress. With the onset of the monsoon, the Collector instructed Panchayat Raj officials to focus on sanitation and drinking water chlorination in villages. He emphasised frequent cleaning of water tanks, preventing seasonal diseases, and ensuring daily waste collection from every household. The DPO was asked to collect daily implementation reports. Additionally, irrigation officials and tahsildars were directed to check the strength of tank bunds in preparation for water release into KC Canal and LLC. Finally, as per directions from the Election Commission of India, BLO training must be completed between July 8 and 17.
