The case of the petitioner is that right from the UDR records, the petitioner's Trust name has been incorporated in the records and patta has also been issued. However, the petitioner being inhereditary trustee is entitled to manage the trust. However, the grievance of the petitioner is that when the patta was issued by the second resondent, the patta did not reflect the name of the petitioner as Trustee and mentioned the name of the Trust as Nanthagopalan Chattram without any guardian of trust. Therefore, the petitioner has sent a representation to the second resondent on 05.01.2024, seeking inclusion of petitioner's name as Trustee and guardian of Nanthagopalan Chattram. The said application is pending without any progress before the second respondent. 2/6 https://www.mhc.tn.gov.in/judis W.P.(MD)No.4902 of 2025 3. The learned Counsel appearing for the petitioner has also taken me through SLR FMB and other records, where the name of the Chattram find place and admittedly the said Chattram having no legal status, has to be necessarily represented by a Trustee/Guardian. In this connection, a representation have been given to the second respondent. 4. The learned Additional Government Pleader would submit that without carrying out the corrections in the UDR records, the Tahsildar will not in position to include the name of the petitioner. I am unable to accept the countenance for the simple reason that the petitioner does not seek for any change or correction of the UDR records. But only wants the name of Trustee/Guardian to be included in the computerized patta No.573 which reflects as if the Nandagopal Chattram is not represented by anyone. The second respondent shall consider the petitioner's representation dated 05.01.2024 and pass orders on merits and in accordance with law within a period of eight weeks from the date of receipt of a copy of this order. 3/6 https://www.mhc.tn.gov.in/judis W.P.(MD)No.4902 of 2025 5.
