Hyderabad: Deadline for notary lands regularisation extended till May 31

Hyderabad: Chief Minister K. Chandrashekar Rao on Monday extended by a month the deadline for applications to seek regularisation of notary lands in the city, following a request made by MLAs.

“People will be given land pattas with legal rights. The government's main objective was to address the poorer sections’ housing issues in one go. A special drive will be conducted for the purpose soon,” he said.

The Chief Minister also assured to resolve notary problems regarding agricultural lands, with a collectors’ conference to be held on the issue soon.

Chandrashekar Rao’s decision comes after a meeting with minister Ch Malla Reddy, MLCs Sheri Subhash Reddy and Naveen Kumar, MLAs Arikepudi Gandhi, Maganti Gopinath, Danam Nagender, Madhavaram Krishna Rao, Jajula Surender, Atram Sakku and Akbaruddin Owaisi (MIM) at the Secretariat.
