Jammu & Kashmir: land and property records

J&K land records sit on the LRIS portal (Aapki Zameen Aapki Nigrani, launched 22 Oct 2021), which was under maintenance or returning HTTP 504 on 11 Oct 2026; the DoLR directory points at a department CMS instead. DILRMP-MIS shows 70.54% of villages with computerised records (4,832 of 6,850). Deeds run on NGDRS since June 2020, and ULPIN is also used in SVAMITVA here.
