Aadhaar-like numbers for all properties in Delhi soon

By
All the properties in Delhi might soon have their own Aadhaar-like number.
The Delhi government, in collaboration with the three municipal corporations of the city, may soon start assigning 12 digit unique identification numbers to all the properties in the national capital.
Officials said that apart from ownership details and usage data, the properties will be attached through a Global Positioning System.
The move will help cut down on emergency response time and help in disaster management in times of natural calamities.
“Currently there is no data to help analyse the collective number of properties in the city because of which there is lack of property/housing-specific development schemes. This problem will be resolved if the unique identification number project is started,” said a municipal official.
The official said the data will help in planning public infrastructure, titling of urban property and during census.
“It will help us analyse the population spread as per the number of properties and tell us what public amenities are needed. It would help keep a check on rampant illegal constructions,” said a municipal official.
A senior official of the Delhi gover nment said they had sought suggestions from its revenue department and the municipal corporations.
The corporations will be asked to allot identification numbers in authorised colonies and the Delhi government’s urban shelter improvement board will be responsible for numbering unauthorised areas.
There are approximately 50 lakh properties in the national capital, of which only 15 lakh pay property taxes. The corporations believe that the move will help bring more properties under the tax net.
“The properties will be linked to GPS to cut down on response time during emergency. The numbering will help stop duplication of records due to similar names of places in different areas,” said a government official.

The stringent six-month deadline has attracted the ire of several sections of the industry that fear it will lead to a disruption of wel...
