The Uttar Pradesh government said on Thursday that it disposed of 10.96 lakh mutation cases under Section 34 of the Revenue Code between January 1 and July 31, 2026. During a special drive from June 15 to 25, another 2.21 lakh pending cases were cleared. Under Section 24 (demarcation), 39,645 cases were disposed of, while 80,383 remain pending. For Section 80 (change in land use), 49,855 cases were resolved and no case is more than five years old. The government credited regular monitoring, special drives and technology for the acceleration, The Hindu reports.
The state government parades these numbers as swift justice, but 80,383 cases under Section 24 still remain pending. The special drive that cleared 2.21 lakh mutation cases in just 10 days suggests a burst of activity rather than sustained speed. The real test will be whether the pending backlog under Section 24 shrinks further in the next quarter without another drive.
