Decentralized Land Ownership and Transfer with Blockchain Technology

The conventional land registration process in India and several other regions is plagued byinefficiencies, lack of transparency, and susceptibility to fraud. Dependence on manual record-keeping oftenleads to document misplacement, unauthorized transactions, and prolonged legal conflicts. To resolve thesechallenges, this paper presents a blockchain-based Land Registration System that delivers a secure,immutable, and decentralized approach to managing land ownership data. The system is built on theEthereum blockchain using smart contracts written in Solidity and deployed with the Truffle Suite, alongsideGanache for local blockchain simulation. Key features include property transfer, user verification for bothbuyers and sellers, and authorization from land inspectors, all aimed at fostering trust and speeding uptransactions. A React-based frontend integrated with Metamask ensures secure and user-friendly interaction.By leveraging blockchain technology, the proposed system eliminates intermediaries, reduces fraud risks,and guarantees the authenticity and safety of land records.
