Palace (shown in the map as Part A and Part B) was retained by the ruler of the erstwhile Sandur State. 5. An area of 30561.95 hectares in four forest blocks in Sandur Range of Bellary Forest Division, have been notified under Section 4 of the Karnataka Forest Act, 1963 as below: 1. R.M. Block Ramanmalai Block) 2. S.M. Block (Swamimalai Block) 3. D.M. Block (Donamalai Block) 4. N.E. Block (North- Eastern Block) Total 30561.95 ha. 26 7769.85 ha. 1) Notified U/s 4 of KFA 1963 vide Notification No.FFD-29-FAF-84 dated 28.2.1985 6993.12 ha. 2) 1) Notified U/s 4 of KFA 1963 vide Notification No.FFD-29- FAF-84 dated 28.2.1985 6733.98 ha. 3) Notified U/s 4 of KFA 1963 vide Notification No.FFD-29-FAF-84 dated 28.2.1985 9065.00 ha. 4) Notified U/s 4 of KFA 1963 vide Notification No.FFD-29-FAF-84 dated 28.2.1985 6. The above area corresponds to the State Forest / Village Forest, earlier managed under the Sandur Forest Act, 1937 and even otherwise falls in the category of ‘forest’ for the purposes of the Section 2 of the Forest (Conservation) Act, 1980. A copy of the Gazette of the R.M. Block, reportedly not available, has in 2009 been reprinted in the Gazette. A copy of the same is enclosed at ANNEXURE- R-9 to this Report. The map showing the area notified under Section 4 is said to be not readily available. However from
the details of the areas notified under Section 4 of the Karnataka Forest Act, 1963 and the status of mutation of forest land maintained by the Working Plan Division of the Karnataka Forest Department (enclosed at ANNEXURE-R- 10 and ANNEXURE-R-11 respectively to this Report) it is seen that in respect of the above mentioned four forest blocks no survey numbers have been assigned and are noted as Pymasi area in the revenue records. Out of 30561.95 hectares of forest areas of above said four forest blocks, an area of 30,086.51 hectares has been mutated in favour of the Forest Department while 475.44 acres of forest land in Doni Malai Block has not been mutated in favour of the Forest Department. Thus, in so far as the status of these areas being ‘forest’ is concerned, there has been no difference between the Forest Department and the Revenue Department. 7. A number of mining leases have been sanctioned and sale / purchase of land have been allowed in Ramgarh area and which was supposedly survey No. 1 to 35 in Ramgarh Village. This issue was taken up by the Lokayukta, Karnataka, following which the Deputy Commissioner, Bellary sent a Report dated 28.4.2008 addressed to the Principal Secretary (Revenue), Government of Karnataka (English translation as provided by the State of Karnataka is 27
