Amendments to Establishment of the Tamil Nadu State Employment Guarantee Fund for the Purposes of Implementation of the Tamil Nadu Rural Employment Guarantee Scheme under National Rural Employment Guarantee Act
The Rural Development and Panchayat Raj Department of the Government of Tamil Nadu issued G.O. Ms. No. 99, Rural Development and Panchayat Raj (CGS.1), dated 25th October 2010, to amend a department notification published on 3rd February 2006. The amendment changes the names of the State employment guarantee fund and the Tamil Nadu rural employment guarantee scheme.
What the notification does
G.O. Ms. No. 99, Rural Development and Panchayat Raj (CGS.1), dated 25th October 2010, amends Rural Development Department notification No. II(2)/RUL/79(c)/2006, which was published in Part II, Section 2 of the Tamil Nadu Government Gazette Extraordinary on 3rd February 2006.
The Governor of Tamil Nadu made the amendments using the power conferred by subsection (1) of Section 21 of the Mahatma Gandhi National Rural Employment Guarantee Act, 2005, Central Act 42 of 2005.
Names changed
The Rural Development and Panchayat Raj Department notification makes two substitutions in the earlier notification:
- The name “Tamil Nadu State Employment Guarantee Fund” is replaced with “State Employment Guarantee Fund, Tamil Nadu”.
- The name “Tamil Nadu Rural Employment Guarantee Scheme” is replaced with “Mahatma Gandhi National Rural Employment Guarantee Scheme, Tamil Nadu”.
The Gazette text sets out only these two naming changes. It does not describe any other amendment to the establishment or operation of the fund or scheme.
Who is affected
The amendments are relevant to government departments, local administration, programme officials and others who use or refer to the official names of the State employment guarantee fund and the rural employment guarantee scheme in Tamil Nadu.
People reading the 3rd February 2006 notification should understand the two earlier names as replaced by the names specified in G.O. Ms. No. 99, Rural Development and Panchayat Raj (CGS.1), dated 25th October 2010.
Relevance to land and property matters
The Rural Development and Panchayat Raj Department notification concerns the official names of an employment guarantee fund and scheme. The published text contains no provision about land ownership, property registration, planning permission, land classification, acquisition or change of land use.
A property buyer or owner therefore does not need to take any land-related step based on the contents of this Gazette notification. Its practical purpose is to update the terminology used for the fund and scheme in the earlier departmental notification.
