ULPIN

The Unique Land Parcel Identification Number (ULPIN) is a new 14-digit alpha-numeric code that is generated using the latitude and longitude coordinates of a particular land parcel. This article discusses the significance and potential uses of ULPIN in land administration and governance in India. Additionally, it provides information about the upcoming national conference on ULPIN or Bhu-Aadhaar.

What is ULPIN?

ULPIN or Bhu-Aadhaar is a unique identification number that will be assigned to every land parcel or property in India. The code is generated using the latitude and longitude coordinates of a particular land parcel. This makes it possible to identify and locate any land parcel or property with great accuracy. The ULPIN will also contain information about the owner of the land, the size of the land parcel, and other relevant details.

Significance of ULPIN

The ULPIN system will provide a unique identification number for every land parcel in India. This will make it easier to manage and track land parcels, reduce land disputes, and increase transparency in land transactions. It will also help in providing better access to credit and financial services to farmers and small landowners. The ULPIN system will create an authoritative source of truth on any parcel of land or property, which will enable better decision-making in land administration and governance.

Potential uses of ULPIN

The ULPIN system has potential uses across various sectors such as agriculture, real estate, infrastructure, and disaster management. The ULPIN system will help in identifying and mapping agricultural land, which will enable better planning and implementation of agricultural policies. It will also help in monitoring the use of agricultural land for non-agricultural purposes.

In the real estate sector, the ULPIN system will help in identifying and mapping properties, which will enable better planning and implementation of urban development policies. It will also help in reducing land disputes and improving the efficiency of property transactions.

The ULPIN system will also be useful in infrastructure planning and development. The system will enable better identification and mapping of land parcels for infrastructure projects such as roads, railways, and airports. This will help in avoiding land disputes and delays in infrastructure projects.

In disaster management, the ULPIN system will help in identifying and mapping high-risk areas. This will enable better planning and implementation of disaster management policies and procedures.

National Conference on ULPIN or Bhu-Aadhaar

The Department of Land Resources will be organizing a national conference on March 17, 2023, in New Delhi to discuss the implementation of ULPIN or Bhu-Aadhaar. The conference will focus on various topics related to ULPIN’s potential use across sectors such as ease of doing business, ease of living, and best practices in land administration and governance.
