What the notification does
The Tamil Nadu Government notification ந.க. எண் 1566/இ1/2016, published under the Department Heads’ Notifications on 8 March 2017, concerns associations registered within the Ramanathapuram registration district. It records the removal of listed association names from the register of societies under the Tamil Nadu Societies Registration Act, 1975.
The removal followed an earlier notice published in the Tamil Nadu Gazette on 29 June 2016. That notice treated the associations as inactive. According to the notification, no response was received from the associations concerned.
