IndiaKerala's Revenue Minister, A.P. Anil Kumar, announced the state government's goal to provide title deeds (pattayam) to all eligible individuals as part of the UDF government's 100-day action plan. Approximately 5,000 title deeds will be distributed statewide, including 569 in Kollam district. Priority will be given to resolving land-related grievances in Scheduled Caste, Scheduled Tribe, and coastal areas. The government plans to modernize outdated revenue laws and clear 25,000 pending applications in Kollam, including those related to land conversion. Efforts are underway to obtain central government approval for distributing title deeds in forest areas and to correct discrepancies in railway land records in Paravur village. Additionally, 1,259 tsunami flat title deeds have been distributed, and the remaining 44 coastal families will soon receive theirs. Illegal encroachments have been removed, and digital re-survey activities are being accelerated. Infrastructure projects like the Paravur Municipality town hall-cum-shopping complex and several road and bridge constructions are expected to commence soon.
