Seva Sankalp Abhiyan: Story of Service

Women receive financial relief through a 50% registration fee waiver, and their savings can be used for personal needs.

Under the leadership of Chief Minister Shri Vishnu Dev Sai and guidance of Finance and Registration Minister Shri O.P. Chaudhary, women are getting double benefit from registration reforms.

Raipur, October 2026/ Mrs. Jyoti Sahu of Janjgir-Champa is delighted to save ₹11,400 on land registration and avoid the hassle of running to the tehsil office for name transfers. The 50 percent discount on property registration fees for women has provided her with direct financial benefits. The automation of registration has also simplified the process of name transfer after registration. This change has brought double relief for Mrs. Sahu. The saved amount on registration fees is being used for her personal needs. During a conversation with the Registration Department under the "Seva Sankalp Abhiyan," she shared her experience and expressed gratitude to the state government for these facilities.

In line with Prime Minister Narendra Modi's commitment to a developed India and Chief Minister Vishnu Dev Sai's vision of a developed Chhattisgarh, under the guidance of Finance and Registration Minister O.P. Choudhary, various reforms have been implemented to make the state's registration system simple, accessible, transparent, and citizen-centric. Initiatives like fee concessions for property registrations in women's names and automating the name transfer process after registration are providing financial relief to citizens and saving time.

Save Rs 11,400 with 50% off on registration fees

Mrs. Jyoti Sahu said she has directly benefited from the 50 percent discount on registration fees for registering property in women's names. This facility has saved her 11,400 rupees.

The state government has reduced the registration fee on documents related to the transfer of immovable property in favor of women from 4 percent to 2 percent. This has halved the fee for property registration in women's names.

Mrs. Sahu explained that the saved amount on the registration fee is helping her meet her personal needs. Expressing her happiness at this financial relief, she said the fee reduction has made it more affordable for women to register their property in their own names.

Earlier, one had to visit the tehsil for name transfer, now the process has become easier.

Mrs. Jyoti Sahu has benefited from the automation system, not only by saving on registration fees. She explained that previously, after registering the land, she had to go to the tehsil office separately for the name transfer. This process was time-consuming and required repeated visits to the office.

Now, with the automation system, the name transfer process proceeds automatically after registration. This reduces the need for separate applications and visits to relevant offices. Mrs. Sahu described this change as a significant convenience for citizens in property-related matters.

Important initiatives towards economic empowerment of women

A 50 percent fee concession on property registration in women's names is reducing the financial burden of registration. This system encourages women to purchase property in their names and have it duly registered.

Women's participation in property ownership is an important means of strengthening their economic security and self-reliance. The reduction in registration fees is providing direct financial relief to women and their families.

An example is the savings of ₹11,400 received by Mrs. Jyoti Sahu of Janjgir-Champa. For her, this amount was not only a waiver of the registration fee, but also proved to be a useful financial aid in meeting her family and personal needs.
