Who it affects
G.O. (D) No. 10 directly concerns people organising, conducting or attending Jallikattu events at the listed villages in January 2019. It identifies only the village, taluk and event date for each permitted event.
Relevance to property and land
G.O. (D) No. 10 is not a land ownership, land classification, planning or property registration notification. The published text does not identify survey numbers, specific parcels, owners or changes in land use. A property buyer or owner would therefore use it only as a historical record that Jallikattu was notified in the named village on the listed date, not as evidence of title or permission affecting a particular property.
