Change of private path

Muthukumar (Querist) 06 June 2022 This query is : Open
I am from Virudhunagar Tamilnadu. There is an ancestral property from my mother's side in Virudhunagar Town limit. After my grand mother, the property was divided into 3 portions. There is a L shaped private path that is used to connect to the main street.

My mother has given her portion as Gift deed to me.
Now, we want to change the private path to a straight path. My aunts are ready to change the path and register it.

The land of the L shaped path would be given to one of my aunt and she will give land for the straight path.

Is it possible to change private path in Tamilnadu?

Quick Summary

A property owner in Tamil Nadu wishes to alter a private L-shaped path providing access to their ancestral property. The proposed change involves an exchange of land with an aunt, where the aunt receives the old path in return for providing land for a new, straight path. While document writers suggest private paths cannot be registered or transferred, the consensus is that if it's private land used for passage and not public, a formal registration might not be necessary for this specific land exchange arrangement.

You can get the exchange deed for the two properties to be executed by your mother and aunt.

Here document writers are saying private path cannot be registered or transferred. Is that true?

It is stated to be private land used for passage but not public land, therefore it need not to be registered.

P. Venu (Expert) 08 June 2022
The arrangement proposed does not involve any conveyance of property. As such, to my knowledge, no registration is required.

Hi Venu, Vashista, I think I didn't make my question clean. The current and the required / proposed structure is mentioned in the diagram @ https://drive.google.com/file/d/1oEztmComIgO-i-bjufBi5Fr4lwxY4hU0/view?usp=sharing.

Schedule C property owner has to give a portion of her property for the new path and take the existing path as compenstation..
