Major Relief for Citizens

The 22-day disruption had severely affected citizens visiting registry offices from Mathura city as well as surrounding areas including Vrindavan, Govardhan, Chhata, Mant, Baldeo, Raya, and other parts of the district. Many families postponed property transactions, while homebuyers, farmers, and business owners faced significant inconvenience due to the suspension of registration services.

The prolonged work boycott also delayed numerous land and property transactions, affecting both private parties and government revenue collection.

Background of the Protest

The agitation began after lawyers, deed writers, and stamp vendors raised objections to the proposed expansion of the e-registration system and alleged privatization of registry-related services. Protesters expressed concerns that the proposed changes could affect the existing functioning of registry offices and the livelihoods of professionals associated with the registration process.
