Quick Summary: On December 18, 2025, the Madras High Court told officials to take another look at a land access problem related to the Chennai-Bengaluru Expressway. The person who brought the case, R. Dhanasekaran, says that the construction has blocked the way to his property.
R. Dhanasekaran went to court because some of his land was taken for the new Chennai-Bengaluru Expressway in Kancheepuram District. He argues that 20 feet of his land, which could have been used for a small road, was taken, leaving him without a way to get to his land.
Dhanasekaran asked for help on June 21, 2025, hoping the authorities would fix the problem and give him a way to reach his property. When he didn't get an answer, he took the matter to court.
Judge Senthilkumar Ramamoorthy instructed the third and fourth officials involved, including the Special District Revenue Officer and the Special Tahsildar, to look into Dhanasekaran's request. They have until eight weeks from December 18, 2025, to come up with a solution.
The court stressed that Dhanasekaran should have a fair opportunity to explain his situation. The officials need to review his concerns and make a decision based on that.
This decision shows how important it is to make sure people can access their properties when big infrastructure projects are happening. The final outcome will depend on how the officials respond to Dhanasekaran’s request.
