What this gazette contains
Tamil Nadu Government Gazette Extraordinary No. 186, published by the Government of Tamil Nadu on 8 May 2020, contains a notification issued through the Public Works Department. The notification is about acquisition of land for a water related public purpose.
The text says that 40.14.72 hectares are needed. It also mentions WAPCOS and records that notices were issued on 24.08.2009, 08.12.2009 and 01.03.2012.
What it governs
The Public Works Department notification identifies specific lands proposed for acquisition for the project named in the Tamil text. The gazette mainly works as a public listing of the affected properties.
It includes a schedule showing, for each parcel:
- survey number or sub division number
- classification of land, such as dry
- extent of land
- adjoining survey numbers
- patta or related reference details
- names of pattadars, owners or other interested persons
Who it affects
This gazette matters most to people whose land details appear in the schedule, and to buyers, owners and professionals checking title or acquisition risk.
You may be affected if:
- your survey number or sub division number appears in the schedule
- your name, or the name of a family member or predecessor, appears as pattadar or interested person
- you are buying land in the listed villages and need to know whether it is under acquisition proceedings
- you are verifying boundaries, because the schedule also gives neighbouring survey numbers
