Before giving permanent land ownership pattas to the owners, the chief minister instructed the officials to ensure that all problems, including ownership and boundaries, are settled peacefully. Reddy also told them to give the lands given to them by the forefathers valid titles.

Reddy informed them to meet with the parties engaged in the conflicts and try to address the issues amicably through communication. The chief minister requested that the officials tackle the problems at the village secretariat level.

When it came to property registration at village secretariats, Reddy urged staff to leave no possibility for corruption. Reddy wanted them to speed up the process of resolving disputes and registering properties. Reddy told the officials to make sure the records were not tampered with.

The amount of the land, its boundaries, the names of the owners, and the nature of the land should all be clearly stated in the registration forms. After collecting clear information from the proprietors, the information with all of these facts should be recorded.
