The Housing and Urban Development Department issued G.O.(Ms).No.117 dated 16 June 2022, declaring the Government of Tamil Nadu's intention to add 29 revenue villages in Erode District to the Bhavani Local Planning Area. The proposal is preliminary, and inhabitants, local authorities and institutions in the listed areas may submit written objections or suggestions within two months from publication of the notification in the Tamil Nadu Government Gazette.
What the order does
G.O.(Ms).No.117 dated 16 June 2022 records the Housing and Urban Development Department's decision to declare an intention to expand the Bhavani Local Planning Area. The existing local planning area comprises Bhavani Municipality, which was declared as such through a notification published in the Tamil Nadu Government Gazette in 1983.
The proposal followed a request from the Director of Town and Country Planning to include additional areas in Erode District. The notification is to be published in the Tamil Nadu Government Gazette and republished by the Collector of Erode District in the District Gazette.

The notification proposes adding the following revenue villages:
- Olagadam, Kalbavi, Kurichi, Padavalkalvai, Singampet and Kadappanallur.

A buyer, owner or professional dealing with property in any of these villages should note that the document proposes bringing that village into the Bhavani Local Planning Area. The source describes an intention to add the areas, not a completed final addition.
