STATEMENT OF OBJECTS AND REASONS.

According to section 3 of the Gudalur Janmam Estates (Abolition and Conversion into Ryotwari) Act, 1969

(Tamil Nadu Act 24 of 1969) on and from the date of commencement of the said Act, every janmam estate including

all communal lands, waste lands, pasture lands, forest, etc., shall stand transferred to the Government and vest in

them free of all encumbrances. Other provisions of the said Act deal with the procedure to carry out survey and

Tamil Nadu Act 24 of 1969 and determined as forest under that Act, as reserved forest under the said Tamil Nadu

Act V of 1882. The Government have also decided to amend the said Tamil Nadu Act V of 1882 suitably for the

2. Further, a Writ Appeal No.1268/2016 was ﬁ led by the Tamil Nadu State Election Commission before the High Court of

be passed by the Supreme Court in the appeal on 06.09.2017. In view of the said orders of High Court of Madras, particularly with

reference to the pendency of appeal in Supreme Court, the Tamil Nadu State Election Commission has ﬁ led Interlocutory Application

(I.A.No.88126/2017) in the Supreme Court seeking direction to permit to conduct election to the local bodies on the basis of the

delimitation of territorial wards determined by the Delimitation Commission and the same is also pending before the Supreme Court.

In these circumstances, Contempt Petition No.1697/2017 has been ﬁ led before the High Court of Madras for non-compliance of

the orders passed in Writ Appeal No.1268/2016. The Tamil Nadu State Election Commissioner and Secretary to Tamil Nadu State

Election Commission have ﬁ led aﬃ davit explaining the causes for non-compliance of the orders passed in the said Writ Appeal.

is still pending in the High Court.

3. The Civil Appeal Nos.5467-5469/2017 ﬁ led against the orders in W.P.Nos.23411/2016, 23417/2016 and 23418/2016 in

TAMIL NADU GOVERNMENT GAZETTE EXTRAORDINARY

5. In the circumstances stated above, ordinary election to village panchayats, panchayat unions and district

panchayats could not be conducted and therefore the term of oﬃ ce of Special Oﬃ cers has to be extended, since the term of oﬃ ce of

the Special Oﬃ cers was due to expire on the 31st December 2018. The Government therefore, decided to amend the Tamil Nadu

Panchayats Act, 1994 (Tamil Nadu Act 21 of 1994) so as to enable the Government to extend the term of oﬃ ce of the Special Oﬃ cers

for a further period of six months upto the 30th June 2019 or until the ﬁ rst meeting of council is held after the ordinary elections to the

village panchayats, panchayat unions and district panchayats, whichever is earlier. Accordingly, the Governor has promulgated the
