Jammu and Kashmir has achieved 100 per cent digitisation of land records across all 20 districts, 207 tehsils and 6,818 villages, the government said on Friday, 2 October. Chief Secretary Atal Dulloo reviewed progress at a meeting that also covered the AgriStack rollout, including Farmer ID generation, ULPIN creation and integration of cadastral maps through BhuNaksha.

Over 68.6 lakh land parcels have been digitised and a backlog of 6.47 lakh mutations cleared. AgriStack data entry has been completed for 65.8 lakh Khasras, with 57.3 lakh approved, 80.7 per cent of the base. Dulloo directed Deputy Commissioners to certify that no eligible farmer is excluded and to fix responsibility for delays. The government also plans to integrate digitised land records with the RBI's Unified Lending Interface to enable secure agricultural lending. Deputy Commissioners have two months to complete Farmer ID generation and resolve cross-district land parcel issues.
Both sources cover the same official review meeting, but Kashmir Life leads with the 100 per cent digitisation milestone, while Rising Kashmir leads with the Chief Secretary's directive to certify farmer coverage. Kashmir Life frames the story as a completed achievement, emphasising the figures and the integration with RBI's lending interface. Rising Kashmir leads with the administrative follow-up: the Chief Secretary fixing responsibility for delays, asking for certificates and frequent inspections. Neither source adopts a critical stance toward the government, both report the official account without opposition voices. The difference is one of emphasis: Kashmir Life treats the event as a report on a task accomplished, Rising Kashmir as a directive narrowing a gap. The balanced reading is that digitisation is complete on paper, but the next operational deadline, Farmer ID completion within two months, will test field-level implementation.
