CM allays apprehensions on Section 22A lands, asserts govt. will protect rights of owners
Instructions given to officials to verify lands and register private lands in time, he said
Chief Minister Revanth Reddy has reassured citizens over the concern of lands being included in prohibited lists under Section 22A of the Registration Act. He affirmed that the State government is committed to safeguarding the rights of property owners. The government has taken steps to prevent any hindrance in genuine owners registering their properties.
On Tuesday, he met with senior officials to assess the issue that arose from the inclusion of private lands in the prohibited list under Section 22A. He directed concerned officials to verify within two days if lands belonging to those who secured slots for online registration were listed under Section 22A. If they were, these lands should be exempted from the prohibited list and registered accordingly.
District Collectors have been tasked with inspecting the lands under Section 22A and compiling a detailed list, which will provide a permanent resolution to the matter. The Chief Minister emphasized that the government is resolute in ensuring that no private land is affected and cautioned the public against placing trust in brokers, middlemen, or rumors regarding Section 22A lands.
