What the notifications do
The Tamil Nadu Government published Department Heads' Notifications, reference numbers 4217/02/2010 and 5621/ஆ 5/2010, in the Tamil Nadu Gazette dated April 13, 2011. The first notification is associated with the District Registrar and Registrar of Societies, Tindivanam, and is dated January 18, 2011. Both notifications concern societies that did not respond to official letters asking whether they were functioning.
The notices were issued under the Tamil Nadu Societies Registration Act, 1975. They do not immediately remove the listed societies from the register. They provide a final period for the societies to give a satisfactory explanation.
Who is affected
The notifications directly affect the societies identified by registration number, name and address. The first list contains registrations from 94/2002 to 116/2002 and 1/2003 to 6/2003. It includes water users' associations, youth and women's groups, a parent teacher association, a consumer protection association and other local organisations in places including Tindivanam, Gingee and Vanur.
The second list contains registrations 133/1995 to 162/1995. It includes youth organisations, rural women's and children's development groups, welfare associations and other societies at addresses in areas including Pudukkottai, Thirumayam, Kulathur, Manamelkudi and Iluppur.
A property buyer, owner or professional is affected only where a transaction, ownership claim or document involves one of the listed societies. The notification itself does not announce any transfer, acquisition or change in the classification of land.
