Mohsin Naqvi conducted a detailed visit of the e- Registration Model Centre and inspected the e-Registration system for the transfer of land. He directed to formulate a system for the payment of online fee for the facilitation of citizens. Mohsin Naqvi also visited the branch of Punjab Bank at the e- Registration Centre. He inspected the Sub Registrar offices of Ravi Town, Samanabad Town and Data Gunj Baksh Town established at the centre. CM conversed with the citizens who came for their transfer of land and inquired about the e- Registration system. He quered Garhi Shahu citizen present at the e- Registration Model Centre as whether anyone asked him for money for the registry.The citizens by appreciating the e- Registration system replied no money was been taken and the registration system is much simplified and easier now. Mohsin Naqvi revealed that the land transfer process of all the three towns will be done under a single roof at the e- Registration centre. The people will get rid of frequently visiting the offices for their transfer of land. The land transfer process will become transparent with the establishment of e- Registration centre and corruption will be eliminated. E- Registration Centres will be established in every Divisional Headquarter of Punjab. First e- Registration Centre has been inaugurated in Lahore while other two centres will be completed soon. I will review the pace of work by visiting the Shalimar and Raiwind Centres. All phases of e- registry will be completed in a short span of time at the e- Registration Model Centre.

A ban has been imposed on doing manual registry in Lahore as only e-Registry will be done. Excellent facilities have been provided to the citizens in the e- Registration Centre. He informed that he has inaugurated one e- Registration Centre in Lahore while two more e- Registration Centres will be established in Shalimar Town and Raiwind. I have directed the Deputy Commissioner to complete both e- Registration Centres by 31st January. BoP facility has been provided in the e- Registration Centre and will soon provide NADRA facility as well. CM stated that tax evasion will be eliminated with the establishment of e- Registration Centres. I visited the Data Gunj Baksh Town Registry Office some time earlier. The office condition was highly deplorable and their was no place to sit. Then it was decided to improve the condition of e- Registration office. Everyone worked hard and the credit goes to SMBR who worked day and night. Comfortable facilities will be provided to the people at the e-Registration Centre and they will also be saved from fraud. He said that pending applications will be highlighted on the dashboard. The registry process will not be delayed with the establishment of e- Registration Centre and registry will be done on the spot. In reply to question Mohsin Naqvi stated that neither he cares for protocol nor for criticism. A criticism can be done on many things and has no issue with the criticism. If I had cared for criticism then I would not have done any work. The complaints about corruption will be eliminated with the establishment of e- Registration Centre. Everything is computerised and there will be no wastage of time. In reply to another question he said that no decision has been made so far to increase winter vacations in the schools.
