Under the Ministry of Panchayat Raj's SVAMITVA Scheme, the residents of the rural inhabited areas will be provided with property rights. It will create a way for the residents to use the property as a financial asset in order to get loans and other financial benefits like in urban areas. Through the latest surveying drone technology, the scheme will demarcate the inhabited lands in rural areas.
As per the PIB press statement, the scheme has also provided a boost to the ecosystem of drone manufacturing in the country.
