A mega revenue adalat here on Tuesday provided solace to many landless families by addressing their grievances.
The adalat was held in the presence of Revenue Minister Adoor Prakash.
Addressing the function, inaugurated by K.P. Mohanan, Minister-in-charge of the district, Mr. Prakash said revenue adalats held in ten districts could resolve 2,81,167 land-related grievances.
The government had so far received 3,44,377 complaints and the adalats, held as directed by Chief Minister Oommen Chandy, could resolve 81 per cent of the cases, he said.
He said the adalats in Kannur, Thrissur, Ernakulam, and Kollam would be held by February 24. Adalats were being held to resolve disputes pending due to technical reasons.
The government had so far issued 1,16,71,807 certificates taking advantage of the e-district project, Mr. Prakash said, presiding over the function at the municipal stadium grounds here. The Minister gave approval to issue title deeds to 10 families at the adalat. Five fishermen families residing on the wasteland around the Kasaragod railway station were allotted title deeds at the function.
