The Tamil Nadu Urban Habitat Development Board (TNUHDB) has extended the time provided to the public to send feedback on the draft Resettlement and Rehabilitation (RR) Policy by a week to November 3.
TNUHDB, which released the English version of the draft on its website on October 12, 2021, had initially provided two weeks time to send feedback. The Tamil version was released four days later.
The extension followed appeals from civil society organisations, which argued that the time was insufficient to take the draft policy to the communities vulnerable to resettlement to hear their feedback. Requests were also made to TNUHDB to organise public consultation in different districts.
Senior BJP leader and former Telangana Governor Tamilisai Soundararajan on Saturday (November 23, 2024) said the landslide victory of the Mahayuti alliance in the Maharashtra Assembly election was historic, and that it reflected people’s mindset across the country. She added that the DMK would be unseated from power in the 2026 Assembly election in Tamil Nadu and that the BJP would be the reason for it.
