The New Indian Express Tirunelveli
|April 28, 2025
The state government has relaxed the norms for regularisation of residential encroachments in Chennai and surrounding areas (Chengalpattu, Kancheepuram and Tiruvallur).
The government has also relaxed certain norms for all other parts of the state, including urban and rural areas. The norms relaxed are related to the annual income of families, the extent of regularisation and fixation of land value.
The Cabinet approved these relaxations in a meeting chaired by Chief Minister MK Stalin on April 17 and the G.O. was issued on April 26. The guidelines for regularisation of residential encroachments were issued on February 21. According to the G.O., the annual family income for eligibility to receive a free house site patta has been enhanced from ₹3 lakh to ₹5 lakh for this one-time regularisation scheme and will be applicable to the entire state.
