Key points of the municipal decision are:

- The Chairman of Manaparai Municipality, an all party committee and villagers submitted representations concerning the proposal.
- The Government rejected suggestions to retain parts of Kannudaiyanpatti and Usilampatti within the municipality.
- The Government stated that the remaining municipality would retain the normal qualifications relating to population and income.

Why it matters for landholders
Owners, buyers and professionals dealing with land in the four listed villages can use G.O.Ms.No. 685 dated 18 March 1974 to identify the declared local planning area. For land in Usilampatti, Kannudaiyanpatti or Kalingapatti, G.O.Ms.No.1059 dated 19 April 1974 is also relevant because it changes municipal jurisdiction. The document does not state that the municipal exclusion cancels the inclusion of these villages in the local planning area.
