What land is being acquired and where
The land is being acquired for the State Highway Upgrade at Perode, which is a state road project in Erode district.
The records show 26 survey numbers in a single village, Perode, in Erode taluk. No other village appears in the notices for this project.
The acquisition is under the Tamil Nadu Highways Act, 2001. This is a state law. It is separate from the National Highways Act, 1956, and the 2013 central land acquisition Act. No National Highways Act section 3D declaration has been recorded for this project.
The notice and its present stage
One notification has been recorded. It was published in the State Government Gazette on 23 March 2020 under the Tamil Nadu Highways Act, 2001.
Under this Act, the Government acquires land needed for a highway by publishing a notice in the Gazette. Such notices are generally issued under section 15(1). The notice gives the particulars of the land and the purpose for which it is required. The notification text itself will confirm the exact section that was used.
On the records available, the notice has not been withdrawn, either in full or in part. No later correction notice has been recorded for it.
These records do not show whether possession has been taken, whether compensation has been paid, or whether the road work has been completed. Those points must be confirmed with the land acquisition office.
Villages covered
Only one village is covered: Perode, in Erode taluk, Erode district. The notice lists 26 survey numbers in this village, and none of them is recorded as withdrawn.
The notice may cover only part of a survey number, for example a strip along the existing road. Check the notified extent and subdivision number against your own documents. Do not assume the whole survey number is affected.
What to do if your land is listed
Get a copy of the Gazette notification dated 23 March 2020. Compare the survey number, subdivision and extent in it with your patta, chitta and sale deed.
Contact the land acquisition office that handles highway acquisitions for Erode district, or the Highways Department office concerned. Ask whether an award has been passed for your survey number, what the compensation stands at, and whether possession has been taken.
If you are a buyer, ask the seller for the acquisition status in writing. Check the latest patta and encumbrance certificate. Do not pay for land, or part of land, that has been notified for the road unless the status is clear.
If you think your land has been wrongly included, or the extent is wrong, take advice from a lawyer promptly. The time to object to a notice under the Act may already be over, so you need advice on the remedies that are still open.
