The Punjab government has made another significant leap in land record digitization, allowing citizens to download their property registries online through the Punjab Urban Land Systems Enhancement (PULSE) project.
PULSE creates a Unified Land Information System, bringing together urban land data on one platform for better transparency and easier access. One of its key features is GIS-based parcel mapping, which connects official maps directly with ownership data—helping minimize land disputes and confusion.
So far, over 151 million pages of registered deeds have been digitized. The project has also successfully mapped 836 housing societies and 874,000 land parcels, integrating data with local housing authorities to streamline property documentation.
To access their registry, citizens simply need to visit the PULSE portal, choose “RoD Archives/Records”, and enter details such as their city, tehsil, CNIC, buyer’s name, and registry number. The system then provides downloadable copies of the official property documents.
Officials say the digital shift will promote planned urban development, reduce corruption in land transactions, and attract more domestic and foreign investment by improving land governance.
In a related move, Punjab Chief Minister Maryam Nawaz Sharif recently inaugurated the Punjab Enforcement and Regulatory Authority (PERA). Starting operations in Lahore Division next week, PERA will target artificial inflation, hoarding, profiteering, and illegal land encroachments, expanding province-wide by December.
