High-Level Committee Formed to Resolve Section 22-A Land Issues

High-Level Committee Formed to Resolve Section 22-A Land Issues

Some pieces of land are called 'prohibited lands' under a rule called Section 22-A.

This rule stops people from buying or selling those lands.

Many regular people had problems because of mistakes made by government offices.

A minister named Ponguleti Srinivasa Reddy said sorry for those problems.

He announced a special group of senior officials, called a high-level committee, to fix these land issues.

The government wants to solve all the pending land applications by the end of August.

People can call a free phone number to ask for help.

The government will answer their complaints within three days.

If someone already paid money for registration that could not be done, the money will be given back.

The minister also promised that honest landowners will not be treated unfairly.
