Revenue Minister K. Rajan has said that all applications for Patta (title deeds) in hilly areas will be accepted from March 1 to 15.
Addressing the media here on Friday, he highlighted the existing regulations allowing issue of title deeds to farmers who migrated before 1977, with the Central government’s permission. However, he noted that a significant number of migrants had not pursued title deed applications.
He underscored the challenges posed by the Centre’s lack of interest in accepting new applications or facilitating joint inspections by Revenue and Forest departments.
