RAJSHAHI, Apr 17 (BSS): Boosting up the number of trained land surveyors has become indispensable for substantial and sustainable reduction of the existing land-related corruption and litigation, speakers at a certificate-giving ceremony said here today.
They viewed that introduction of nationwide digital land survey would also remove the people's sufferings relating to land disputes caused by the conventional land records.
They made these observations while giving certificate among 30 participants of a month long training on land measurement and survey at BRAC Learning Centre in Rajshahi.
Brac under its project styled "Enabling Poor Women to Access Property Rights in Bangladesh" organized the training aiming to facilitate the poor and marginalized communities towards attaining land rights.
In his project-briefing speech, Sadrul Hassan Mazumder, Programme Coordinator (Property Rights Initiative) of Brac's Human Rights and Legal Aid Services, said the project is being implemented to strengthen access to land and property rights for all citizens especially the poorest.
Mainly, the project intends to generate skilled human resources on land survey for promotion of effective, transparent and accountable land governance practices.
