What the notifications do
The Rural Development and Local Administration Department issued G.O. Ms. No. 650 dated 8 April 1975 under the Tamil Nadu Town and Country Planning Act, 1971. It declares the local authority of each listed local planning area to be the Local Planning Authority for that area.

Who may be affected
The Vridhachalam notifications are relevant to buyers, owners and professionals dealing with land in any of the listed revenue villages. They establish that these villages form one local planning area and identify the local authority as the Local Planning Authority.
For land in another place named in G.O. Ms. No. 650 dated 8 April 1975, the relevant local authority was similarly declared to be the Local Planning Authority for that planning area.
What the source does not specify
The notifications establish planning areas and planning authorities. The supplied text does not provide parcel-level land use classifications, development conditions, charges, rates or fees. A property must therefore be matched to the listed revenue village or local planning area before deciding whether these notifications are relevant to it.
