In the 26th National Conference on e-Governance 2023, the National Award was given to the SVAMITVA (Survey of Villages Abadi and Mapping with Improvised Technology in Village Areas) scheme of the Ministry of Panchayati Raj.
The objective of the SVAMITVA scheme is to survey the population of villages, map rural areas with advanced technology, and provide ownership rights of property to individuals living in rural areas.
State-of-the-art technologies such as drones and Geographic Information Systems (GIS) are used for this initiative.
Property cards have been created, which enable rural property owners to leverage their property for financial benefits.
