Village Panchayats in Tamil Nadu to Hold Gram Sabha Meetings on Independence Day with Focus on Building Plan Approvals and Digital Initiatives
The State Rural Development and Panchayat Raj (RD&PR) department has instructed village panchayats in Tamil Nadu to conduct Gram Sabha meetings on Independence Day, August 15. In a circular announcing these meetings, the director of RD&PR also directed village panchayats to include self-certification for immediate approval of building plans in rural areas on the agenda.
The director urged panchayats to discuss post-approval inspections, prevent middlemen`s intervention, and encourage people to directly apply and secure approvals through self-certification. Additionally, the department advised rural local bodies to consider online applications via the website www.onlineppa.tn.gov.in for plot and building approvals in rural areas.
Furthermore, the rural local bodies have been advised to post the Gram Sabha proceedings in real-time on an Android app developed for this purpose.
