The Revenue Department notification deals only with the time allowed for the Commission of Inquiry. It does not contain findings on the allegations, identify particular survey numbers or properties, name individual landholders, or state the outcome of the inquiry.
A reader checking land in Siruthavur Village should therefore understand that the Gazette notification records an extension of the inquiry period, rather than a decision about ownership or the validity of any particular transaction.
