Digital Transformation of Forest Rights Titles and Benefits
Problem
- Processing a large number of forest rights applications with minimal field staff in TWD.
- Embedding maps with latitude and longitude coordinates into RoFR title deeds.
- Manual scrutiny of applications and evidence at multiple levels (Gram Sabha, SDLC, DLC) was time-consuming and complex.
- Digitizing title deeds, including claimant and forest details, maps, and coordinates, for electronic passbook printing.
- Difficulty in extending post-claim benefits due to the absence of digitized claimant data.
Solution
- Developed an online application for claim submission via Common Service Centers.
- Created a mobile app for Forest Rights Committees to access claimant details, upload evidence, and conduct field surveys.
- Enabled automatic capture of latitude, longitude, and area calculation through the mobile app.
- Developed a web-based application for multi-level approval processes with monitoring and reporting features.
- Integrated the RoFR database with other departmental databases to extend post-claim benefits to title holders.
Outcomes
- Issued 1,33,301 RoFR title deeds in two years (2021-2023)
- Transferred Rs. 595.74 crores via DBT for agriculture investment support and Rs. 35.45 crores for life insurance benefits.
- Digitized RoFR title deeds with enhanced security features, including QR codes and holograms to prevent tampering.
- Reduced approval times by eliminating the need for physical records and evidence copies through the IT system.
- Captured latitudes and longitudes of land areas under Individual Forest Rights, enabling future mapping.
