What owners and buyers should check
The schedules provide property-specific information, including:
- Original survey numbers and new subdivision survey numbers.
- Total extent and the portion acquired.
- Land classification, including dry, wet and natham land.
- Patta numbers and names of owners or other interested persons.
- Recorded wells, pumps, electric motors, bore wells, and trees such as palm, teak, neem, coconut and mango.
A buyer, owner or professional dealing with land in the named villages should compare the property's survey number and subdivision with the relevant schedule. A matching owner name alone may not establish whether a property is affected because the acquisition is identified by survey details and extent.
