Revenue & Estate Department KPK Jobs. The Settlement of Land Records in Districts Dir Lower, Dir Upper, and Tehsil Kalam, Swat is a landmark initiative approved by the Khyber Pakhtunkhwa Revenue & Estate Department, and is recognized as Pakistan’s first GIS-based land settlement operation. With an estimated cost of Rs. 1.93 billion funded through the Annual Development Programme (ADP), the project aims to digitize land records, modernize revenue administration, and deliver faster and more transparent land transaction services to the public. The settlement process will create comprehensive digitized records of rights, including Shajra Nasab (family trees), Khatoni (tenancy records), and cadastral maps, helping to reduce long-standing land disputes and improve landowners’ access to formal financial services such as bank loans.

Executed under the Project Implementation Policy (PIP)-2022 to ensure transparency and the efficient use of public funds, the project is now recruiting experienced revenue professionals and a finance specialist to carry out the field settlement operation. This is an opportunity for retired Tehsildars, Girdawars, and qualified accountants to apply their domain expertise to a high-profile, technology-driven public sector initiative with direct impact on land governance in the region.
