The Kerala Cabinet approved five governance reforms to improve transparency and reduce revenue leakages from project delays.
SAMPATH is a centralised digital platform for tracking government-owned land, buildings, and infrastructure assets.
PlanSpace 2.0 is an expanded GIS-enabled registry tracking the location, funding, and construction stage of capital projects.
The reforms also include a registry of Kerala's 591 government institutions, a legal review of outdated laws, and a process re-engineering programme.
SAMPATH (Special Asset Management Platform for Administration, Tracking and Harmonisation) is a centralised digital record of government-owned land, buildings, and infrastructure. PlanSpace 2.0 is a GIS-enabled registry that geotags capital projects, recording their implementing agency, funding, and construction stage.
Simple Analogy: SAMPATH is like a digital property register for the state's own assets; PlanSpace 2.0 is a live map tracking every ongoing government project.
