The Rural Development and Panchayat Raj (SGS.1) Department issued Government Order (Ms) No.166 dated 11 November 2024, amending the approved site for the Periyar Ninaivu Samathuvapuram project in Tiruvannamalai District. It replaces the previously selected Kannakurukai site with land in Survey Nos. 6/2, 6/4 and 6/5 at Periyakolapadi Village Panchayat, Chengam Block, because the earlier site had been allotted to a Veterinary Hospital.
What the document does
Government Order (Ms) No.166 dated 11 November 2024, issued by the Rural Development and Panchayat Raj (SGS.1) Department, changes one entry in the list of sites approved for eight new Periyar Ninaivu Samathuvapurams for 2023 to 2024. It amends Serial No.5 in the annexure to Government Order (Ms) No.74, Rural Development and Panchayat Raj (SGS-1) Department, dated 15 March 2024.
The wider scheme had received administrative and financial sanction of Rs.50 crore for constructing eight new Samathuvapurams. The amendment concerns only the selected site in Tiruvannamalai District.
