. Non availability <strong>of</strong> good data entry agencies at district level was another<br />

challenge. BHOOMI implementation team had to train the data entry<br />

agency staff also in carrying data entry legacy records.<br />

c. Total effort was about 20,000 man-months legacy data entry involving<br />

1200 operators.<br />

3. Verification <strong>of</strong> digitized records was a real challenge; certification <strong>of</strong> correctness<br />

<strong>of</strong> data entry is pre-requisite for any electronic system to become operational.<br />

Making field level functionary complete verification and certification was<br />

extraordinary task. There was a need to stop people from doing incremental<br />

correction instead <strong>of</strong> one time complete correction. Different levels <strong>of</strong> hierarchy<br />

right from Village Accountant to Deputy Commissioner were assigned with<br />

percentage <strong>of</strong> records to be verified and certified.<br />

4. Rigidity in redefining rules and procedures was another important challenge, all<br />

people in the hierarchy had to be convinced to bring amendments and procedural<br />

changes in maintaining legacy records.<br />

5. Lack <strong>of</strong> technical support at taluk level was the major hurdle in implementation,<br />

though district head quarters taluks could be operationalized with the help <strong>of</strong><br />

District Informatics Officers <strong>of</strong> National Informatics Centre, same thing could not<br />

be done as these <strong>of</strong>ficers were stationed at district head quarters and had assigned<br />

with many other computerization projects. Revenue <strong>Department</strong> had to recruit one<br />

district consultant per district to assist the department in implementation <strong>of</strong> the<br />

project across the state.<br />

6. Maintaining Hardware, UPS and provide consumable such as secured stationery,<br />

holograms, printer cartridges etc., at taluk level was another important challenge.<br />

Revenue department had to come out with a concept called facility management<br />

to overcome this. Today a single vendor manages computer, printer, UPS, supply<br />

<strong>of</strong> stationery etc.,<br />

7. Training and capacity building was most essential and critical activity for<br />

successful implementation. Whole <strong>of</strong> revenue hierarchy involved in BHOOMI<br />

activities had to be trained. A continuous training in batches were organised for<br />

more than one year to cover all <strong>of</strong>ficials initially. Now incremental trainings are<br />

being organized as and when new reforms are introduced.<br />
