Registration: is a process.
A power of attorney is a document that enables A to act on behalf of B. And in the eyes of the law the actions of A will be treated as those of B.
You can do all these acts yourself, or you can appoint some other persons to do all these acts of agreement of sale, sale deed and other statutory formalities on your behalf.
PoA's are required to be registered by law to have statutory binding, when they deal with matters relating to immovable property

Introduction of Relinquishment Deed
Many times it happens that a person dies intestate (without leaving a will or testamentary will) in such cases the property of that person is inherited by his/her legal heir. Then it’s up to the heirs as what they want to do with the said property. If the heir’s come to the conclusion of separation of property, then anyone of the co-owner (who is not willing to keep the property) can relinquish his share in favour of the other owner. This process of transferring property from one owner approving the other is known as “Relinquishment of Property”.

Meaning of Relinquishment Deed
Relinquishment deed is a legal document/instrument where a legal heir gives up or releases his legal rights in an inherited parental property for another legal heir such as his mother, son, daughter, brother, sister, etc.

The term relinquishment refers to the abandoning and surrender of the rights, title, and interest, by one co-owner of property for the other co-owners. The consequences of relinquishment of one co-owner’s share in property are the enlargement of the shares of the other co-owners.

Essentials Elements of Relinquishment Deed
Legal document: Relinquishment deed is a legal document. Through this legal document, an heir can transfer or release his legal right of the inherited property.
Consequences: The effects of such transfer of rights are the release of the share of one co-owner and the enlargement of the shares of the other co-owners.
Irrevocable: A release or relinquishment deed is irrevocable even if it made without any consideration. For a valid relinquishment, the property must be owned by more than one person.
Relinquishment cannot be done in favour of a 3rd person: Relinquishment of property can’t be made in favour of a person other than a co-owner. If a relinquishment is made in favour of a person who is not a co-owner, the transaction will be treated as a gift.
Must be in writing: The relinquishment of right in the case of immovable property needs to be done only through a written document called relinquishment deed which must be signed by all the parties and witnessed by at least two witnesses.
Must be registered: Relinquishment deed falls under Section 17 of the Registration Act, 1908 and hence, a release of rights in the immovable property must be registered. The registration takes place in the office of the sub-registrar within whose jurisdiction the property is situated.
Consideration: A relinquishment deed can be done with or without any consideration.
Easy process: A relinquishment deed can be made and registered in few days, and this process is not expensive.
Who can Relinquish Property
The relinquishment of property can only be done by someone who has a share in the property. In case there is more than one owner in a property, either of the co-owners can do relinquishment. For a valid relinquishment, the essentials of a valid contract are to be followed other than the compensation.

Illustration: A died intestate leaving behind his three sons. A was the owner of a land which after his death was inherited by his three sons. Later, one of the son X shows his interest for not keeping any share in the said property for which he offered relinquishment. The relinquishment deed was made in favour of other two owners. The relinquishment deed transferred every right of X in the property to his brothers.

In whose name can a property be Relinquished?

The relinquishment of property can only be done in the name of a person who is co-owner or co-sharer in the property. Or in other words, relinquishment of property can not be done in the name of any third person other than the already existing co-owner. Hence, for a valid relinquishment, the person getting the relinquished property must be a legal heir.

A property can also be transferred to minors; such cases will be governed by the Indian Contract Act 1872.

PM Narendra Modi set an ambitious target of doubling farmers’ incomes by 2022, doubling incomes in seven years (2015-16 to 2022-23) meant the agriculture sector growing at 10.4 per cent per annum whereas the sector grew at only 4.3 per cent during 2009-14 and prior to it India took 22 years (1993-1994 to 2015-16) to double farmers’ incomes in real terms.

Niti ayog elaborated this can be a doable thing and came up with slew of reforms

If go deep inside and look into the agrisector growth rate which is of 2.9 per cent in the last five years - the same rate at which it grew during Atal Bihari Vajpayee’s term - 3.1% lower than UPA-1 terms and 4.3 per cent rate of UPA-2 terms.

And if we talk about agri exports the situation has worsened more $43.6 billion in 2013-14, registered negative growth and were struggling at $39.4 billion in 2018-19.....

In Budget FM Nirmala Sitharaman ji saying we are planning to promote Organic farming on the other hand they are giving high fertilizer subsidy of 10000 Cr.

I AM Worried how the ambitious target of doubling farmer income can be achieve.

I am not A hater of NDA but huge mandate has been given to them in Elections, and i don't think NDA is paying heeds to its Own Sermons..

Yesterday, our finance minister presented Budget for the country, which says that the economy will grow at the rate of 12% in nominal terms, or by 7-8% in real terms, but I think she is highly mistaken while thinking that this will revive the slowing economy, budget has little, that is likely to boost domestic investments, neither any incentives nor any public investment support mentioned, budget in actual terms has projected decline in public investment or capital expenditure by 6% , "not done ever before in past half century" and since government is unable to support domestic investment, seeking growth fuel from abroad, Foreign institutional investment norms will be liberalised, same goes for the Foreign portfolio institution and will be raising ceilings in FDI IN SOME SECTOR there is no mention of word "job" in the budget speech

Govt is going for external borrowing saying we have less external debt to GDP ratio dont you think that we are heading to the same path of 1980's which leads to Balance of crisis in 1991 and then we mortgaged our gold with World bank for loan,
In second term of Modi government has focussed more on welfare schemes like UJJAWALA,SWACCHH BHARAT ANd adding to it Jal shakti.

Modi ji saying we will be $5 trillion economy by 2024-25 how will it be possible
Where budget speech leaving private investment and private consumption for economic growth.
