NAKSHA Programme
The second phase of capacity-building training will begin on 2nd June 2025.
NAKSHA stands for National Geospatial Knowledge-based Land Survey of Urban Habitations.
This initiative addresses the pressing need for modern, accurate, and accessible land records in urban settings.
It aims to reform urban land surveys using advanced geospatial technologies.
As urban populations surge, the need for accurate land records becomes critical.
The programme is implemented by the Department of Land Resources in collaboration with the Survey of India and the National Informatics Centre Services Inc. (NICSI).
It is funded entirely by the Government of India.
