Ennore Port road land acquisition
Government Order (Ms.) No. 30, Highways and Minor Ports (HF2), dated 6 March 2018 states that scheduled lands are to be acquired for highway purposes. The stated project is road connectivity to Ennore Port, described as the Northern Port Access Road Project, in No. 92 Vayalur I and III Villages, Ponneri Taluk.
The supplied schedule identifies wet survey lands, registered holders or interested persons, boundaries, present subdivisions and areas. People holding land in the listed survey fields may therefore be directly affected by acquisition and compensation proceedings.
Insurance policy stamp duty
Notifications of the Commercial Taxes and Registration Department consolidate stamp duty payable for policies issued by the New India Assurance Company Limited. Other notifications extend earlier consolidation periods for offices of that company and for Cholamandalam MS General Insurance Company Limited. These provisions concern insurance policy stamp duty rather than ownership, registration or transfer of land.
