Who may be affected
G.O. (D) No. 146 directly concerns people organising or conducting Erudhu Vidum Vizha in the three listed villages during the specified April 2018 period. Residents and others attending events in those locations may also find the notified dates relevant.
The notifications do not state any change to land ownership, title, classification, planning permission, registration or property boundaries. A property buyer or owner would therefore use the document only as a record of the notified Erudhu Vidum Vizha locations and dates, not as a land rights document.
