Chief Minister Conrad K.

Speaking at the event, Sangma said issuing pattas will remove long-standing administrative, legal and financial hurdles faced by residents, enabling them to access government schemes and formal credit more easily. He stressed that the government will not act unilaterally on sensitive land matters and will move forward only with the willingness and cooperation of the people. (ommcomnews.com)
Officials from the district administration said the distribution is part of efforts to streamline land records, clarify ownership, and reduce disputes in the Tura town area. Residents and community leaders who attended welcomed the initiative as a step toward secure land rights and improved governance at the local level. (ommcomnews.com)
