The declaration promised to scrap the previous government's Dharani land records portal and replace it with a new revenue mechanism protecting ownership rights. The government enacted the Telangana Bhu Bharati (Record of Rights in Land) Act, passed by the Assembly in December 2024, which came into force on 14 April 2025, and launched the Bhu Bharati portal to replace Dharani, extending it statewide by June 2025. The new system decentralises grievance redressal to Tahsildar and Revenue Divisional Officer level, introduces a unique per-parcel land identifier, and provides an appeals and correction framework. The core promise, scrapping Dharani and replacing it with a new revenue mechanism, is verifiably delivered, supporting a fulfilled verdict. One caveat recorded neutrally: erroneous entries carried over from Dharani are not automatically fixed and require correction within a statutory window, so the protection of ownership rights for every holder remains a work in progress even though the replacement itself is complete. Budget: the state reported an allocation of around Rs 1,200 crore for comprehensive land surveys underpinning the new system, indicating allocation and active utilisation.
