G.O. Ms. No. 143, Reservation of Seats in District Panchayats Wards, Amendments to Notification, 2019
The Government of Tamil Nadu, Rural Development and Panchayat Raj Department, issued G.O. Ms. No. 143 dated 1 October 2019 to amend its notification on reservation of seats in District Panchayat wards under the Tamil Nadu Panchayats Act, 1994. The amendment changes the Salem District table by moving the listed placement of five Village Panchayats from ward No. 22 to ward No. 23 under Pethanayakanpalayam Panchayat Union.
What the notification governs
The Government of Tamil Nadu, Rural Development and Panchayat Raj Department, issued G.O. Ms. No. 143 dated 1 October 2019 under the Tamil Nadu Panchayats Act, 1994. It amends Rural Development and Panchayat Raj Department Notification No. II(2)/RDPR/341(h-1)/2019, published in the Tamil Nadu Government Gazette Extraordinary dated 20 May 2019.
The amendment concerns the table for Salem District in the notification dealing with reservation of seats in District Panchayat wards. It changes where specified Village Panchayats are shown in that table. The source does not identify the reservation category attached to either ward.
Changes to the Salem District table
For serial No. 4 and ward No. 23, the following entries are inserted under the heading Pethanayakanpalayam Panchayat Union, before the existing entry for B.Karadipatti Village Panchayat:
- A.Komarapalayam Village Panchayat
- Kottavadi Village Panchayat
- Kalyanagiri Village Panchayat
- Vaithigoundampudhur Village Panchayat
- Periyakrishnapuram Village Panchayat
For serial No. 14 and ward No. 22, the following entries are removed from the table:
- Pethanayakanpalayam Panchayat Union
- A.Komarapalayam Village Panchayat
- Kottavadi Village Panchayat
- Kalyanagiri Village Panchayat
- Vaithigoundampudhur Village Panchayat
- Periyakrishnapuram Village Panchayat
The resulting tabular change places the five named Village Panchayats under ward No. 23 rather than ward No. 22 in the amended reservation notification.
Who may be affected
The amendment is relevant to residents, voters, candidates, local bodies and officials dealing with District Panchayat ward records in the named parts of Salem District. It may also be relevant when checking which District Panchayat ward includes one of the five listed Village Panchayats for the purpose of the reservation notification.
The notification does not state that it changes land ownership, property boundaries, survey numbers, planning status or land use. A property buyer or owner should therefore treat it as a local government electoral reservation record, not as a land title or planning document.
