What the letter governs
The Commissioner of Land Reforms issued D.O.Lr.No. J2/11010/2011(L.Ref.), dated 5 January 2012, concerning the enumeration of members under the Chief Minister’s Farmers Security Scheme 2011. The letter was sent to all District Collectors except Chennai and follows Government Order G.O.Ms.No.265, Revenue (LR.I(2) Department, dated 10 September 2011, and two earlier letters from the Commissioner’s office.
The guidance deals with identifying and checking scheme beneficiaries in villages. It does not state that it transfers land or changes land ownership, land classification or ceiling rights.
Verification and public display
Village Administrative Officers carry out the enumeration in every village using a supplied register. Where enumeration has been completed, the following process is required:
- The Village Administrative Officer submits the register to the Special Tahsildar (SSS).
- The Special Tahsildar (SSS) arranges verification of register entries through Revenue Inspectors and Deputy Tahsildars.
- Eligible persons who were omitted are to be included.
- Persons found to be ineligible are to be removed.
- After checking, the enumerated list is to be displayed at the Village Administrative Officer’s office or the village Chavadi.
Public display is intended to improve transparency and allow people to check whether eligible members have been included correctly.
Action available to omitted persons
An eligible person whose name is missing may register the name with the concerned Village Administrative Officer. District authorities were also requested to issue a press release informing the public that the village list would be displayed and that omitted eligible persons could seek registration.
Final lists and reporting
After the beneficiary list is finalised, it may be uploaded to the website so that people and officials can view and verify scheme beneficiaries in future.
District Collectors were asked to report completion of this work by 20 January 2012 for villages where enumeration had already been completed. They were also asked to continue the process regularly and report on it every week.
