Quick Summary: The High Court in Chennai gave Mohammed Ishak the green light to register his land. The court said he just needs to submit the right papers, and they’ll take care of the rest. Here’s what happened.
On December 2, 2025, the High Court of Madras, with Judge Senthilkumar Ramamoorthy, heard a case filed by Mohammed Ishak. He wanted to register his small piece of land, but the officials said no because he needed a layout approval first.
Back on March 5, 2025, the local office in Mannargudi, Cuddalore District, told Ishak he needed layout approval to register his land. Ishak argued that the rule about layout approval didn’t apply to him because he wasn’t registering a house plot.
“The person asking for registration is not trying to register land meant for building a house.”
The court listened to both sides. The government’s lawyer said Ishak should just submit the registration papers, and they’d handle it according to the rules.
Judge Ramamoorthy decided to let Ishak submit his registration documents. The local office in Mannargudi has to process them within two weeks.
“This case is closed by allowing the person to submit the necessary papers for registration.”
Now, Ishak can go ahead and submit his registration documents. The officials have to act fast and give him an answer in two weeks. No extra costs for Ishak, which is a win for him!
