Form 6 (Shall be issued to the applicant by the Collector to remit regularisation fee)

The Supreme Court have directed the respondents to approach the competent authorities constituted under KLU Order 1967/Kerala Conservation of Paddy Land and Wetland Act 2008 as the case may be for conversion of the land. When the applicants approach the concerned authorities constituted under the above statutes, the concerned authorities shall consider the application of the applicants in accordance with the relevant provisions of the statutes and also the notification G.O.(Rt.) No.157/2002/AD dated 05/02/2002 and in accordance with law keeping in view the factual position that may be brought to the notice of the authorities along with material to substantiate their claim.

Notification No. G.O. (Rt.) No.157/2002/AD dated 5.2.2002, Government of Kerala, Agriculture (NCA) Department has issued instructions to follow the modalities for implementation of the KLU Order, wherein conversion for construction of houses for individuals are permitted and it reads as under:

1) The direction issued to District Collectors vide reference read as first paper (Government letter No. 47165/NCA-3/97/AD dated 17.12.1997) will be withdrawn. This would mean that applications for conversion can be considered and disposed off by Revenue Divisional Officers/District Collectors in accordance with the provisions of the KLU Order and related standing instructions. The Land Revenue Commissioner will hear appeals and the Government (in the Agriculture Department) will exercise revisional powers as provided for in the KLU Orders.

2) District Collectors will ensure the conversions, which are likely to render irrigation investments infructuous, are not to be allowed. Similarly large scale conversion for Commercial purpose should be discouraged.

3) In all cases, where conversion is allowed, Collectors/Revenue Divisional Officers must ensure that drainage for neighbouring or nearby plots is not blocked or rendered impossible.

4) Conversion of land for construction of houses for individuals, upto 5 cents, should generally be allowed. However, large-scale
conversion of land by artificial partitioning into small plots of less than 5 cents should be detected and disallowed.

5) The revenue machinery at the taluka and village-level should be activated to ensure that in future, conversions or attempted conversions without sanction are promptly detected and proceeded against. Conversions should not presented as a ‘fait accompli’ which have to be inevitably regularized.

6) Government will examine the suggestions of Collectors/Principal Agricultural Officers for changes to the KLU Order to make the penal provisions more effective and also for levying as on conversion.
