RTC, or Record of Rights, Tenancy and Crops, is a crucial document in Karnataka's land records system. It provides comprehensive details about the land, including the ownership status, area, type of soil, and details of the crops grown. This document is essential for various legal and transactional purposes like selling land, seeking farm credits, and resolving disputes. Known locally as Pahani, the RTC is maintained by the state government's revenue department. It can be accessed by landowners and other stakeholders online through the Bhoomi portal, a digital initiative by the Karnataka government to streamline land record management.
