Itanagar, Jul 12: Minister for Land Management etc, Balo Raja advised the department to cross check all the cases of land allotments to avoid any legal ramifications in terms of overlapping of plots proposed for allotment with that of the government and public lands.  He also advised to accord priority for the acquisition of lands for various developmental activities especially of national interests.  
The minister said this while reviewing the overall activities of the Land Management Department today in an interactive -cum-coordination session at the State Planning Department in the Civil Secretariat.
Advisor to Minister(LM etc) Techi Kaso,  Secretary(LM) AK Singh, Director (LM) Mrs. Mamata Riba & other officers and officials of the department were also present.
​Earlier in the day, the Secretary (LM) gave a detailed presentation showing various activities of the department, while highlighting the importance of various aspects such as; Stamp &  Registration, cadastral surveys, etc.  He also informed that e-Stamping process has been implemented in ICR & Papum Pare on pilot mode, which in turn would benefit the state from loss of revenue in comparison of conventional Stamps, which involves freight charges in addition to its original costs.  
​Kaso in his remarks emphasised the need for enhancing the lease period of lands to a minimum of 60 or 99 years, in order to make Arunachal as an investment-friendly state, as he pointed out that due to the present inadequate lease period of 30 – 33 years, most of the investors are reluctant to invest here.
​Director(LM) underlined the initiatives of the Department in its 100 days Action Plan and assured that the department would be able to accomplish the commitments well on time.
