Fadnavis also highlighted other initiatives, including an online portal for the land acquisition process and updates to the Ready Reckoner (RR) rates, which will now be available village-wise and plot-wise.

"We are also preparing new rules to streamline the process of converting Class 2 land to Class 1 land," he said.

The state plans to introduce an easy sand policy and create a comprehensive portal containing details of all four cadres of the Revenue Department. A manual for revenue officials is also in the works, Fadnavis said.
