10. Challenges IT Infrastructure& stable internet connectivity Public awareness regarding online registration Capacity building of registering officers/staffs Adaption of cashless transaction 11. Conclusion The objective of the e-registration and other reforms taken in the field of registration can only be fulfilled when the citizen register and get the delivery of the document within the given time limit without involvement of middlemen. This can only be achieved when public will be aware about different e- Governance initiatives of the government like online registration of documents, online issuance of encumbrance certificate/ certified copy & cashless transaction through e-stamping and Odisha Treasury Portal. To ensure prompt and quality service delivery, all registering offices in the state needs to be systematically monitored and appropriate action should be initiated against the registering officers who are not delivering services within ORTPS prescribed timeline. In the end, the success of revenue administration depends on the updation of land records. It also needs to be ensured that the Form-3 in e-registration system is automatically transferred to the LRMS server in due time and the purchaser get the RoR (Record-of-Rights) without delay. 12.
