The government’s direction came following a high-level meeting at the Office of the Chief Minister (CMO) on Friday. It was revealed at the meeting that around 504 acre of land have been leased out to different individuals and institutions for a long time.

In order to regularise those land, the government directed the district administration to complete the survey work within 20 days. Additional revenue officials will be deputed to complete the work within the deadline after deciding the dues to be collected from the lease holders as per the norms.

During his visit to Puri earlier, 5(T) secretary VK Pandian had received various grievances from the public in this connection.
