What land is being acquired and where
The acquisition is for an approach road to the SIPCOT Nedumpuli Industrial Park. The record classifies it as a state road project.
All the land covered lies in one village, Nedumpuli, in Nemili taluk of Ranipet district. The notification lists 28 survey numbers in that village.
A survey number appearing in the notification does not always mean the whole survey number is taken. Notifications often list subdivisions or part extents, so the exact area affected must be checked against the notification schedule.
The notice, the law and its stage
The acquisition is under the Tamil Nadu Acquisition of Land for Industrial Purposes Act, 1997. This State law is used for land needed for industrial purposes, including land for SIPCOT projects and their access roads.
Under this Act, the process begins with a notice under section 3(1), served on owners and persons interested, calling on them to show cause why the land should not be acquired. After considering their cause, the Government may pass an order under section 3(2) and publish it in the Gazette. On that publication, the land vests in the Government free from all encumbrances.
The record shows one notification, dated 7 June 2022, published in the State Gazette. No later notice, withdrawal or correction is recorded. The record does not tell us whether the acquisition has since been completed, whether possession has been taken, or whether compensation has been paid, so these points must be confirmed with the authorities.
Villages covered
Only one village is covered: Nedumpuli, Nemili taluk, Ranipet district, with 28 survey numbers. No survey numbers in this village are recorded as withdrawn.
No other villages are listed for this project in the record.
What to do if your land is listed
Obtain a copy of the 7 June 2022 Gazette notification and read the schedule. Match your survey number, subdivision and extent exactly against it, and against your patta and the field measurement sketch.
Ask the office of the Special Tahsildar (Land Acquisition) dealing with SIPCOT projects, or the District Collectorate at Ranipet, about the present stage: whether a section 3(2) order has been published, whether an award has been passed, and when compensation will be or was paid.
Keep your title documents, patta, chitta, adangal and a recent encumbrance certificate ready. Compensation is paid to the person shown as entitled, so any pending mutation, succession or partition issue should be set right early.
If you are buying land in Nedumpuli, check every survey number against this notification before paying an advance. Land that has vested in the Government cannot be validly sold by the former owner, and a registered sale deed will not cure that.
