The article from Dawn highlights the challenges faced by farmers in Sindh due to the cumbersome process of accessing land records. Despite efforts over the past decade to digitize these records, the procedures for mortgaging farmland, accessing passbooks, and obtaining farm credit remain unchanged and heavily reliant on traditional roles such as the Tapedar and Mukhtiarkar. The article notes that 'speedy access to their land records remains cumbersome for many in Sindh,' particularly affecting small and medium-sized farmers who are the majority landholders. The establishment of People’s Service Centres (PSCs) since 2008 was an attempt to streamline these processes, but the impact has been limited as the fundamental procedures have not evolved, thereby affecting farmers' ability to secure agricultural credit from banks.
