What this gazette contains
Tamil Nadu Government Gazette No. 8, Part VI, Section 1, published by the Government of Tamil Nadu on 21 February 2024, is a collection of public notifications issued by heads of departments. In this extract, the items that matter most to property buyers, owners and professionals are the planning notifications that alter land use entries in the master plans for Dindigul and Coimbatore.
What changes in Dindigul
The notification titled Variations to Modified Master Plan for Dindigul Local Planning Area, issued with Roc. No. 836/2023/DD2 and referring to G.O. (2D) No. 338, Housing and Urban Development [UD4] Department, 19th December 2023, changes land use entries in Adiyanoothu Village, Village No. 93.
Key points:
- Certain survey fields are added under Residential Use.
- The same fields are carved out from the Agricultural Use entry.
- The affected fields include parts of S.F. Nos. 805, 806, 808 and 809, exactly as listed in the gazette.
This matters if your land search involves Adiyanoothu Village, because the master plan entry for those survey numbers is no longer purely agricultural.
