In a decisive push to modernize agricultural data management, streamline land records, and strengthen census operations, Haryana’s Financial Commissioner Revenue, Sumita Misra on Wednesday announced a series of far-reaching initiatives during a detailed review meeting with all Deputy Commissioners of the state.
Looking ahead, she also proposed the establishment of the Haryana State Revenue Training Institute on about 20 acres of land as a state-of-the-art centre for training and capacity building of revenue officials.

Dr Misra informed that the state will roll out Agristack-based crop surveys and farmer registries from the next agricultural season. As groundwork, one village in every tehsil will be taken up as a pilot project, with master training of officials concluding tomorrow. Patwaris and revenue Sahayaks will subsequently be trained by the master trainers to operationalize the initiative.
The Financial Commissioner Revenue directed all Deputy Commissioners to clear pending mutations in campaign mode, emphasizing strict adoption of the First-In-First-Out (FIFO) system on the Web HALRIS platform. This, she underlined, will eliminate manual discretion, ensure fairness, and speed up service delivery. She stressed that backlog reduction is essential before processing new cases and directed that all mutation pendency must be cleared by October 15, 2025.
As the State Nodal Officer for Census 2027, Dr Misra also directed that pilot census operations will commence in Panchkula, Hisar, and Faridabad in October–November 2025, setting the stage for the nationwide census. House listing operations are scheduled for April–September 2026, followed by population enumeration in 2027.
