This initiative aims to reduce the need for Right to Information (RTI) applications by providing citizens with direct access to essential housing-related information.?


MHADA Vice President and CEO Sanjeev Jaiswal stated that the digitization process will encompass a vast array of documents, including property records, building plans, and allotment details. By making these documents available online, MHADA intends to streamline information dissemination and empower citizens with easy access to data that was previously obtainable only through formal RTI requests.

This effort is part of a broader strategy to enhance transparency and efficiency within MHADA's operations. By digitizing records, the authority not only facilitates easier access for the public but also ensures better preservation and management of important documents. The move is expected to significantly reduce administrative burdens and expedite processes related to housing and property management.?

The portal will feature a user-friendly interface, allowing individuals to search for and retrieve documents pertinent to their needs without the necessity of filing an RTI application.?

This initiative reflects MHADA's commitment to leveraging technology to improve governance and public service delivery. By proactively disclosing information, the authority aims to foster greater trust and engagement with the communities it serves.
