State Land Information Management System

State Land Information Management System (e-Slims) was developed using information technology to enhance the efficiency of state land management. This system is being used to enter information related to state lands at the Divisional Secretariat level. It also enables the processes of issuing documents related to land distribution, revenue collection, follow-up actions on distributed lands, and supervision activities to be carried out through the system. This program, which began in 2013 with 40 Divisional Secretariats in the Western Province, was successfully expanded by the end of 2017 to operate across 332 Divisional Secretariats island-wide.
