¶ 01 Hon. Deputy Minister, thank you. In the Manmunai Pattu Divisional Secretary’s Division, around 30 percent of residents are Muslims. For a long time, people living on State lands in this division have not been issued Deeds of Grant or Land Permits. They continue to be neglected. Can action be taken in this regard?
