Uttar Pradesh tehsils undergo digital transformation: AI, blockchain to enhance revenue services

New Delhi: Aiming to transform the state’s revenue administration into a modern, digital, and forward-looking system, the tehsils which are functioning under the UP Board of Revenue Council are being upgraded as model administrative centres with advanced infrastructure, state-of-the-art facilities, and cutting-edge digital services, including AI-enabled systems.

According to a press release, issued by the UP’s information department, a comprehensive survey and framework are currently underway to assess existing capacities, identify required upgrades, and map future needs, with the “Future Ready Tehsil” project scheduled for completion by June 2026.

“Once implemented, these future-ready tehsils will ensure greater transparency, efficiency, and speed in revenue services, significantly strengthening e-governance across the state,” the release mentioned.


The release further said this initiative is an extension of the Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath’s digital campaign, aimed at fully digitizing the state’s revenue administration to make services simple, transparent, and citizen centric.

Approval to convert all revenue tehsils into future-ready units has been granted during a review meeting of the Revenue Department, the release mentioned. Under the plan, digital platforms, online record management, e-filing systems, and smart infrastructure will be established, enabling services such as land registration, certificate issuance, and dispute resolution to be delivered entirely online.

The release claimed citizens will be able to access these services from their homes, saving both time and resources after the completion of this project. At the revenue meeting, officials said that the ongoing survey is evaluating the present condition of tehsils and defining a clear roadmap for their transformation into technologically advanced administrative hubs.

The adoption of AI-based systems and blockchain technology will enhance data security, ensure transparency, and prevent fraud. Beyond administrative reforms, the digital transformation of revenue services is expected to encourage investment, accelerate development activities, and strengthen the rural economy.

The construction of future-ready tehsils is considered a major step towards an administrative transformation in Uttar Pradesh, reinforcing citizen-centric governance through Digital India and e-governance.
