Special meeting to address Attappady land issues, says Keralam Minister Anilkumar
Kerala Revenue Minister A.P. Anilkumar announced a special meeting to resolve long-standing land issues in the Attappady region. The government is prioritizing the issuance of title deeds to marginalized communities as part of a broader 100-day administrative action plan.
Why it matters
This initiative addresses systemic land rights and bureaucratic delays for vulnerable populations, directly impacting the socio-economic stability of tribal and fishing communities in India.
A special meeting of people’s representatives and officials will be held soon to address land issues in Attappady, Revenue Minister A.P. Anilkumar said here on Thursday (October 8, 2026).
The Revenue department will take steps to issue title deeds to people from the Scheduled Caste, Scheduled Tribe and fishing communities after the State government’s 100-day action programme, the Minister said.
Mr. Anilkumar said some members of the SC/ST communities were unaware of the importance of title deeds, making it difficult to receive applications. The Revenue department will coordinate with the SC/ST department and use community promoters to visit their homes, help them submit applications and facilitate the issuance of title deeds.
The Minister was speaking after inaugurating a district-level title deed distribution programme here on Thursday held as part of the State government’s 100-day action programme.
