The Housing and Urban Development [UD4(2)] Department issued Government Order (Ms.) No. 124, dated 22 June 2022, declaring the Government of Tamil Nadu's intention to add nine revenue villages to the Thiruvattipuram Local Planning Area. The order is a preliminary notification, not a final addition, and allows inhabitants, local authorities and institutions in the proposed areas to submit written objections or suggestions within two months from its publication in the Tamil Nadu Government Gazette.
What the order does
Government Order (Ms.) No. 124 of the Housing and Urban Development [UD4(2)] Department, dated 22 June 2022, begins the process of expanding the Thiruvattipuram Local Planning Area. The existing local planning area comprises the Thiruvattipuram municipal area, which was declared as a local planning area through an earlier notification published in 1991.
The Government considered a proposal from the Director of Town and Country Planning and decided to declare its intention to include additional areas. The notification is to be published in the Tamil Nadu Government Gazette and republished in the Tiruvannamalai District Gazette.
Areas proposed for inclusion
The notification proposes adding the following revenue villages to the Thiruvattipuram Local Planning Area:
