The Revenue department’s special task force evicted a major encroachment and reclaimed 7.07 acres and a seven-storey hostel building owned by Tissan Thachankary, brother of former DGP Tomin J. Thachankary, at Thavalam in Chinnakkanal, near Munnar, on Monday.
According to Udumbanchola Land Records (LR) Tahsildar Seema Joseph, the task force reclaimed the land and building after completing proceedings as per the Land Conservancy Act. The task force also erected a government sign board on survey number 222/1 of the Chinnakkanal village.
“The task force will not evict students from the hostel as it will affect their studies in the nearby college. We have given 30 days’ notice to vacate the hostel,” said Ms. Joseph.
