Abstract

Registering lands and managing records is one of the vital processes that needs to be systematic and secure so it is something which we should take care of since land is a huge asset to the owners. In the current scenario, while registering and managing land records there are various instances wherein duplicate documents will be used by malicious people due to which the rights concerning the land will fall into the wrong hands. In addition, in the current scenario most of the data is stored and processed using centralized servers, in this way the data regarding owners can also be changed midway before it gets stored. Therefore, the main aim is to use blockchain technology for securely registering lands and managing records about the land, and also enable peer-to-peer transaction in the payments section. Blockchain is an immutable digital ledger which stores the transaction in terms of blocks wherein each block contains the hash, data, and previous hash of the blocks with the help of which it forms a continuous link of blocks which is often referred to as blockchain
