Mr.Yogesh Kannadasan, learned Government Advocate for the respondents submitted that on receipt of the representation of the petitioner dated 10.07.2021, the first respondent conducted a detailed enquiry and on receipt of the report from the Field Surveyor, rejected the claim of the petitioner by the order dated 03.11.2021.
5. The order dated 03.11.2021 revealed that the land for which patta is sought by the petitioner is classified as SARKAR Poramboke in the Town Survey Land Records and the Maintenance of the office of the first respondent, which belong to the Government.
