He informed that the Revenue Court Management System (RCMS), which was developed by National Informatics Centre (NIC) to facilitate management and monitoring of court cases (revenue courts) was being effectively implemented.

Thori said online services of demarcation of land and non-encumbrance certificates were being initiated through the RCMS. He said the applicant just needs to apply for demarcation online.

The Deputy Commissioner said in case, the applicant fails to apply online, he/she could either visit Fard Kendra, Sewa Kendra or CRO Office and submit the application.

He said the RCMS was designed specifically for revenue courts in the state, which include Financial Commissioner, Divisional Commissioner, Director Land Records, Deputy Commissioner, SDM, Tehsildar, and Naib Tehsildars courts.

Thori said this system has details of properties under litigation from the land record database along with petitioners and respondents. He said besides, generation of summoning notices, the system automatically generates a date-wise cause list of different courts.

The DC said all case-related documents, including interim orders, final judgments, and others could be uploaded through this system.
