Patwaris in Madhya Pradesh have raised concerns over a target of 50 lakh registrations, citing disputes regarding duty hours and overnight work conditions.
Patwaris in Madhya Pradesh have voiced strong dissent over a newly assigned target of 50 lakh registrations. The officials have highlighted significant operational challenges in meeting this quota within the stipulated timeframe.
A primary point of contention for the staff is the dispute over duty schedules. Many patwaris have complained about the requirement for overnight work, which they argue is physically and mentally draining. They contend that the current duty structure does not adequately support the volume of registrations expected.
The workforce has expressed that the combination of high numerical targets and irregular working hours is creating a stressful environment. They are seeking a review of the duty roster and more realistic workload distribution to ensure the registration process proceeds smoothly without compromising employee welfare.
