Karnataka Revenue Department makes plea to High Court

The Revenue Department has made a proposal to the Karnataka High Court, urging it to take up auto entry of court orders in RTCs on the lines of revenue courts.

Revenue Minister Krishna Byre Gowda pointed out that presently the revenue courts were issuing digital orders which were automatically being reflected in the RTCs in real time.

“Earlier, the orders issued by the revenue courts would have to be produced by the petitioners to reflect them on RTCs. However, as part of revenue reforms, the revenue courts are now issuing them in a digital format that would be automatically brought forward for entry into RTCs,” he noted.

He said the Revenue Department has now proposed to the Karnataka High Court authorities, stating that it would provide access to a designated officer of the court to login to the system to enter the order of the High Court and civil courts in the RTC.

“Like we have given login access to ACs and DCs, we have proposed to give similar access to a designated officer of the court,” he said. Talks are on in this regard, he added.
