Only RDO can demarcate area for water conservancy, rules Kerala HC
Kochi: High court has held that the revenue divisional officer (RDO) is the competent authority to demarcate the area for water conservancy while considering applications for changing the nature of unnotified land exceeding 20.2 Ares. Tired of too many ads? go ad free now In such cases, 10% of the applied land must be set apart for water conservancy measures, in accordance with Section 27A (2) of the Kerala Conservation of Paddy Land and Wetland Act, 2008. Justice C S Dias issued the ruling in a petition by Chitranjan Thampan of Alappuzha, who sought a direction to RDO to consider his application for changing the nature of his property in the revenue records. The petitioner, who holds possession of 28.25 Ares of unnotified land, had applied to change the nature of only 25.42 Ares, excluding 10% of the total area for water conservancy as required under the Act. However, his application was rejected, prompting him to approach HC. The single bench observed that the power to demarcate the area for water conservancy is vested with the RDO. Although the applicant is required to submit a sketch showing the area proposed to be set apart for water conservancy, the RDO, based on reports from the village officer and agricultural officer, is the competent authority to demarcate and approve such an area. The applicant cannot unilaterally deduct 10% of the land and apply for the remainder. Accordingly, the court directed the petitioner to submit a fresh application along with a new sketch as stipulated under the Rules for changing the nature of the unnotified land.
