ABSTRACT = {The traditional land record management system in India is plagued by corruption, fraud, and data manipulation. However, the potential of blockchain technology to revolutionize this system is inspiring. Blockchain offers a secure, transparent, and tamper-proof solution for land registry. By leveraging decentralisation and cryptographic security, blockchain ensures data integrity and prevents unauthorized alterations. It can streamline land transactions, reduce disputes, and enhance public trust in property ownership. Despite the challenges its implementation faces, such as legal reforms, integration with legacy systems, and infrastructure constraints, the prospect of successful adoption through collaboration between government agencies, technology providers, and legal experts is hopeful. Learning from global case studies can guide India in designing a practical blockchain-based land registry. Pilot projects in select states can help evaluate feasibility before nationwide deployment. Public awareness and training programs are essential for smooth adoption. With strategic planning, blockchain can indeed revolutionize India’s land governance system.},
