Land acquired in Kattupakkam
The Commissioner of Land Administration, Chepauk, Chennai, issued Tamil Nadu Government Gazette Extraordinary Number 82, Part VI, Section 1, dated 22 February 2025, under the Tamil Nadu Highways Act, 2001.
The notification acquires land for forming a high level bridge in No. 47 Kattupakkam Village, Poonamallee Taluk, Tiruvallur District. Key points are:
- The total acquired area is 2339 square metres, a little more or less.
- The schedule contains 42 entries covering identified survey numbers and new subdivisions.
- Most scheduled land is classified as dry land. Survey Number 242, subdivided as 242/1B, is classified as wet land.
- The schedule identifies pattas, landowners or interested persons, and affected features such as buildings, shops, sheds, compound walls, gates, borewells, wells, trees, a temple portion and vacant sites.
- Compensation is to be paid from funds controlled or managed by the Divisional Engineer (Highways), Chennai Metropolitan Development Authority, Division 1.
Owners, occupiers, interested persons and buyers dealing with any scheduled survey number may be affected. A buyer should compare the property's survey number and subdivision with the Gazette schedule rather than relying only on the village name.
Where the land plan can be inspected
The Kattupakkam acquisition plan is available during office hours at:
- The office of the Special District Revenue Officer (Land Acquisition 2), Highways Projects, Tiruvallur.
- The office of the Special Tahsildar (Land Acquisition 2), Unit IV, Highways Projects, Tiruvallur.
The plan can help identify the exact portion taken from a larger survey field.
Correction concerning Neelankarai
Errata Number VI(1)/111(b-2)/2025 amends Notification Number VI(1)/561(b-5)/2024, published in Tamil Nadu Government Gazette Extraordinary Number 276, Part VI, Section 1, dated 27 August 2024. That earlier notification concerns forming a link road and constructing a bridge across Buckingham Canal between Rajiv Gandhi Salai and East Coast Road at Neelankarai, Chennai District.
The errata substitutes the structure descriptions for four survey entries:
- Survey Number 53/1A1A1B2, 45 square metres.
- Survey Number 53/1D, 182 square metres.
- Survey Number 53/1A1L, 200 square metres.
- Survey Number 53/1A1M, 200 square metres, now described as vacant land.
The survey numbers and acquisition extents shown for these four entries remain unchanged in the correction table.
