It is seen from the impugned refusal check slip that the land was marked as 'jhpR'. Therefore, the guideline value was taken as zero. 3. However, the learned counsel appearing for the petitioner brought to the notice of this Court that, as clarified by the Tahsildar in a letter dated 13.12.2018, the Patta was issued in the name of the petitioner's father.

The computer survey has also been produced before this Court, wherein the land has been described as 'private land'. Therefore, the impugned order is liable to be set aside. 2/4 https://www.mhc.tn.gov.in/judis W.P(MD)No.14301 of 2025 4. Accordingly, this writ petition is allowed.
