The district administration has urged the public to remove the names of deceased landowners from pattas and update them with the names of legal heirs or rightful owners.
In a release, Collector Sibi Adhithya Senthil Kumar said land records in both rural and urban areas of the district have been digitised and made accessible to the public in both viewable and printable formats through the website https://eservices.tn.gov.in/. However, in many pattas, the names of deceased landowners have not been removed, and the names of their legal heirs or rightful owners have not yet been included.
This can be done by submitting the necessary documents either through e-sevai centres or the Citizen Portal. These applications will be reviewed by the respective Village Administrative Officers, and appropriate changes to the pattas will be made based on submitted documents,

Collector reviews monsoon preparedness in TN's Cuddalore district
CUDDALORE: A review meeting to assess preparedness for the 2025 southwest monsoon was held at the collectorate conference hall under the chairmanship of Collector Sibi Adhithya Senthil Kumar. The Collector said, "As the Southwest Monsoon is set to begin, Village Administrative Officers must identify low-lying areas prone to water stagnation and issue public advisories. Details of first informants on waterlogging should be recorded. Around 5,000 first responders will be positioned at the revenue village and taluk levels, and 800 at the district level." He instructed, "Zonal Officers and Tahsildars should jointly identify vulnerable areas and take preventive measures. VAOs, village assistants, assistant agricultural officers, village health nurses, and voluntary organisations must coordinate with village-level committees for flood relief." The collector added, "In flood-prone areas, people must be relocated to safe shelters and provided with essentials. Relief materials should be kept ready and special care must be given to the elderly and persons with disabilities." He further said, "Waterbodies must be inspected and embankments strengthened. Sluice gates must be repaired. Equipment such as tree-cutting machines, JCBs, flashlights, water pumps, and bleaching powder should be stocked. Fire and health personnel must raise public awareness. Water tanks must be cleaned and chlorinated. Sewage contamination must be prevented. Disinfectants should be sprayed in stagnant areas."
