Tamil Nadu Government Gazette, No. 17, Part II, Section 2 (17 PII 2)

What the Gazette covers

It includes measures issued by the Commercial Taxes and Registration Department, Health and Family Welfare Department, Home Department, Labour and Employment Department, Tamil Development, Religious Endowments and Information Department, and Housing and Urban Development Department.

The contents list variations to the master plans for the Kumbakonam Local Planning Area and Salem Local Planning Area under the Tamil Nadu Town and Country Planning Act. The supplied text identifies those notices as appearing on page 143 but does not provide their detailed provisions, boundaries or land use changes.

Relevance to land and property

Property buyers and owners in Kumbakonam or Salem may need the full master plan variation notices because planning changes can concern local land use. This extract does not state which sites, survey numbers or zones are affected, so it cannot establish whether a particular property is covered.
