A 76-year-old woman, who was abandoned by her son after she registered her property to his name, has got back her property after the revenue divisional officer cancelled the transaction and returned a share of the property back to her. Earlier, the woman, C Muniammal of Angampatty village, had on December 5 approached Krishnagiri tahsildar Munusamy, seeking a monthly dole of ₹1,000 under the old-age pension scheme.

Muniammal’s son Murugan works as an office assistant at a block development office in Mathur union, and his wife Sakthi is a headmistress of a panchayat union elementary school in Olaipatty panchayat.

During inquiry, the tahsildar found Muniammal had seven acres and a house in Angampatty village and registered the same to her son’s name when her husband Chinnasamy was alive. “He died of ailment in 2003. After that, her son and daughter-in-law started to torture her. They threw her out of the house 16 years back,” the tahsildar said.

Muniammal then rented a thatched house in the same village and started working as a coolie. The tahsildar forwarded the report and Muniammal’s application to revenue divisional officer Deivanayaki, who held an inquiry with the woman’s son and wife on Friday.

“I have advised them to take care of Muniammal and provide her ₹10,000 a month to meet her expenses,” Deivanayaki said.
