Though it is a timely decision, officials feel that it is going to be a herculean task

The GHMC officials further stated that even though digitalising records was a great decision to maintain 100 percent accuracy and transparency and it would be a herculean task for staff deficient Town Planning department.
Citing this, the civic body was also planning to handover the job to some private agencies to scan the documents and upload them into the GHMC server, they added.
A Town Planning department official told The Hans India that digitalising records would be great idea to track the applications quickly just by entering the registration number.
