According to him, the petitioner has made an application for patta transfer without mentioning about the rectification of the father's name. Learned Counsel for the petitioner would submit that in the website there is no option for such correction of errors in the names of the parties and therefore, application of the petitioner is reflected as if it is an application for sub-division of patta transfer. 2/5 https://www.mhc.tn.gov.in/judis W.P.(MD)No.7905 of 2025 3.The specific case of the petitioner is that his father's name is wrongly mentioned in the patta and in that regard he has given an online application. 4.In view of the above, there can be no impediment for the second respondent to consider and pass orders on the petitioner's application subject to the petitioner providing satisfactory evidence regarding correct name of the petitioner's father.
