Sort out patta-related issues, officials told

Ramachandran holds meeting with officials from four districts

Revenue Minister K.K.S.S.R. Ramachandran on Friday chaired a meeting of officials from Revenue and Survey and Settlement Departments in Chennai and three neighbouring districts, instructing them to sort out issues relating to grant and transfer of pattas for lands. He said RDOs had been instructed to camp in their respective areas once every week to rectify patta-related issues. Speaking to reporters after chairing a meeting of officials in Chennai, Chengalpattu, Kancheepuram and Tiruvallur districts, where the land value was estimated to be the highest in the State, he said the meeting was necessitated following complaints of illegal encroachments, bogus pattas and delays in receiving pattas in these districts.
