According to the information received from the media on 10 May 2023, Aadhaar authentication will now be mandatory for buying-selling land and houses in Bihar on the lines of Madhya Pradesh. In this regard, K.K. Pathak, Additional Chief Secretary of State Liquor Prohibition, Excise and Registration Department has issued an order.
Key Points:
- Due to the mandatory Aadhaar authentication in the state, anonymous transactions of properties will be stopped. At the same time, the correct identification of the buyer-seller will also be easier with Aadhaar number authentication, which will prevent fraud.
- It is known that earlier the case of the land registry by setting up a fake person used to come to the fore, now there will be a complete ban on this.
- Due to mandatory Aadhaar authentication, the unnecessary crowd in the registry offices in the state will also reduce.
- After the instructions issued from the departmental level, now the requirement of witness and identification with the buyer & seller during the land registry will also end. The registry office will complete the witness and identification process only through Aadhaar authentication.
