All deserving persons from Kollam district will be issued title deeds, said Revenue Minister K. Rajan at a meeting of taluk-level officials convened online on Friday.
As the first step, a comprehensive study will be conducted to identify the right beneficiaries from the grassrootslevel. A team of MLAs, people’s representatives and officials will work towards this. The Minister directed the officials concerned to settle cases related to the Kerala Paddy and Wetland Conservation Act in order of priority.
