Andhra Pradesh Suspends Land Registration Under Section 22-A for 3 Months

12 Aug 2024 CW Team

The Andhra Pradesh government has announced a temporary suspension of land registrations under Section 22-A for the next three months. This move is set to impact numerous property transactions and land deals across the state.

Section 22-A of the Registration Act is used to prevent registration of lands that are subject to disputes or issues related to their legality. The suspension is intended to allow time for a thorough review and resolution of ongoing issues associated with land registration.

The decision follows a series of concerns regarding land records and the integrity of property transactions. During this hiatus, officials will focus on addressing discrepancies and improving the transparency of the registration process.

This pause is expected to provide a clearer framework for land dealings once resumed, ensuring that property transactions are conducted under more stringent and well-regulated conditions. Stakeholders and landowners are advised to stay updated on the new guidelines and timelines to avoid any disruptions to their property dealings.
