Kerala’s New Bill Ensures Attached Property Isn’t Lost Forever

The Kerala Assembly passed a bill aimed at preventing properties attached under the Revenue Recovery Act from being lost indefinitely. The legislation proposes that attached properties should not be sold immediately but rather kept for up to three years, allowing owners to redeem them. This move seeks to protect individuals and businesses facing attachment due to unpaid dues, ensuring a fair chance for recovery. The bill aims to balance debt recovery with safeguarding the rights of property owners, addressing concerns of fairness and due process in revenue recovery procedures.
