After the registration, a buyer should go for mutation, to ensure the title of said plot/land is in his name in the Record of Rights (RoR) proceedings. It would be a valid document but majority of people are unaware of this, Mr. Kiron says.
Secondly one should verify the land details in 'Khasra Pahani' ultimate revenue document detailing land as existing in 1954-55. Thirdly when one applies for 'Encumbrance Certificate', they also should search to rule out if other persons were holding the title to the same property. After the mutation, one should fence the land or better to go for trench cutting, he advises. Change of survey numbers are another menace and majority of civil disputes are due to this, he adds. To ensure the authenticity of plot/land in a given survey number, one should check it with 'Tippani Survey', the survey undertaken by the Government with land marks, village boundaries and available with the Joint Director, Survey, District Collector besides every mandal level surveyor who knows exact boundaries of different Survey Nos. Though introduction of photographs of both the buyer and seller in the registration document reduced malpractices to some extent, Karnataka has advanced methods over Hyderabad <http://www.maaproperties.com/>like in digital fingerprints, recording of iris image with appropriate technology, which would alert if the same land/plot is being registered in the name of others. In short, the land transactions should be made transparent giving absolutely no scope for tampering/manipulations.
