Aimed at issuing title deeds to the families settled in the hilly terrains of Angel Valley, the Revenue department will constitute a special task force to examine records and survey the land in the Angel Valley-Pampa Valley area of Kanjirappally taluk, Revenue Minister K.Rajan has said.
Addressing a meeting of officials here on Tuesday, the Minister tasked the District Collector and the Deputy Director of Survey to submit an action plan and a comprehensive report within a week. A calendar for the time-bound completion of the action plan too will be prepared.

In , the grape capital of India and host of the Simhastha Kumbh Mela every 12 years, environmental concerns over a plan to cut 1,800 trees for the proposed Sadhugram project in the historic Tapovan area have sharpened political fault lines ahead of local body elections. The issue has pitted both Sena factions against the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP), which leads the ruling Mahayuti alliance in Maharashtra. While Eknath Shinde, Deputy Chief Minister and Shiv Sena chief, and Uddhav Thackeray, chief of the Shiv Sena (UBT), remain political rivals, their parties have found rare common ground in Tapovan, where authorities propose clearing trees across 34 acres to build Sadhugram and a MICE (Meetings, Incentives, Conferences and Exhibitions) hub, as part of a ₹300-crore infrastructure push linked to the pilgrimage.
