Residents of a residential locality have announced their decision to boycott the upcoming assembly election as a form of protest against prolonged delays in the issuance of computerized subdivision land ownership documents. The residents state that despite submitting multiple representations to senior administrative authorities over several years, no concrete action has been taken to resolve the matter. The locality comprises around 250 families who purchased residential plots through legally registered sale deeds during the early to mid-1980s. Following the purchases, houses were constructed after obtaining all necessary approvals from the relevant government departments. The residents have been living in these houses for decades and have consistently paid property tax, water charges, electricity charges, and other statutory levies without default. According to the residents, applications for conversion of existing manual land records into computerised subdivision records have been pending since 2009. Despite fulfilling all documentation requirements and repeated follow-ups with various departments, the applications remain unresolved. The residents claim this prolonged delay has caused significant hardship, affecting their ability to access loans, register property transfers, and secure legal clarity over ownership. Frustrated by what they describe as administrative apathy, around 600 eligible voters from the area have collectively decided not to participate in the forthcoming election unless the issue is addressed. The residents emphasize that the properties were originally purchased through a recognized housing society and that all construction was carried out only after securing proper approvals, including the issuance of manual land ownership documents at the time. They assert that their protest is not politically motivated but is aimed solely at drawing attention to a long-pending civic grievance that has remained unresolved for more than a decade.
