In tamil nadu, revenue authorities ask for parent documents for even beyond 30 years from the date of patta application for issuing patta for a privately owned residential land, despite producing documents of title, EC etc for 30 years.
as per law, verification of 12 years /30 years title suffices to establish ownership, how revenue authorities can demand for documents beyond 12 /30 years for issuing patta;
pl throw more light on the legal provisions , more so when patta is made mandatory for all transaction subsequent to 2015-16.
