Quick Summary: V. Kannapiran wants his land officially recognized in his name, but he needs to apply online first. The court has given him a timeline to do this.
On January 27, 2026, the High Court of Madras heard a case involving V. Kannapiran, who filed a request against the District Collector of Thiruvarur and other officials. Kannapiran wanted his land in Manapparavai Village, Kudavasal Taluk, officially registered in his name.
Kannapiran's land is located in Manapparavai Village, Kudavasal Taluk, within Thiruvarur district. He wants the land ownership document for this property, which is 0.12 cents in size, to be updated with his name.
Judge Abdul Quddhose was in charge of the case. Kannapiran's lawyer, Ms. T. Hemalatha, asked for a quick decision. However, the other side, represented by Mr. C. Jaya Prakash, pointed out that Kannapiran hadn't applied online for the land document.
"The petitioner is willing to submit a fresh online application," said Kannapiran's lawyer.
The court told Kannapiran to submit a new online application within a week. Once submitted, the local official in charge, the Tahsildar of Kodavasal Taluk, has 12 weeks to make a decision on the application. This decision will consider any objections from neighboring landowners.
The court stated that there would be no costs involved in this process. Kannapiran now has a clear path to follow to get his land officially recognized in his name.
