On November 30, 2024, the Government of Himachal Pradesh issued a notification regarding the registration of cattle and maintenance of records by Gram Panchayats under the HP Panchayati Raj Act, 1994. This notification introduces two forms: Form A for families already entered in the Parivar Register and Form B for families not yet included.
Key Highlights:
- This form is designated for families entered in the Parivar Register. It facilitates the registration of cattle and ensures the maintenance of relevant records within the Gram Panchayat.
- It is part of the state’s initiative to streamline cattle registration and record-keeping for these families.
- For families not entered in the Parivar Register, this form ensures the registration of cattle and the upkeep of necessary records by the Gram Panchayat.
Online Maintenance through e-Parivar:
- Both Form A and Form B will be maintained online through the e-Parivar system. This ensures a digital approach to tracking and managing cattle registration, offering improved accessibility and transparency.
The initiative is in line with the HP Panchayati Raj Act, 1994, and aims to enhance record-keeping for better governance and accountability in rural areas.
