The electronic payment facility introduced by the Revenue Department is yet to turn popular in the district as most land tax payers still follow the conventional method of direct payment by visiting village offices. Meanwhile, some urban residents who use the online service to pay land tax say that the facility caters only for those having accounts in 10 nationalised banks. Now, the services of 10 nationalised banks are available on the portal to complete the online payment. Department officials say that the reluctance on the part of the people to migrate to the new technology is doubling their workload at village offices and delaying other crucial revenue-related work. According to Revenue Department officials, the facility is unavailable only in some hill-side village offices where unsurveyed land continues to be an obstacle for its implementation.
