Puducherry

Union Territory · Capital: Puducherry · South India

Official UT Government Portal

py.gov.in

The starting point for any Puducherry-specific scheme, department contact, or notification — departmental sub-portals (transport, health, education, revenue) are usually linked from here.

Land Records Portal

We couldn't confidently verify a single distinct branded land-records portal name for Puducherry — rather than guess, check Puducherry's Revenue Department website directly (linked above), or ask at your local Tehsil/Taluka/Revenue office. See our Land & Property Rights guide for the underlying law regardless of the portal.

National Helplines (apply in every state/UT)

These numbers work the same way across all of India, including in Puducherry.

Emergency (Police/Fire/Ambulance): 112
Child Helpline: 1098 (CHILDLINE)
Senior Citizen Helpline: 14567
National Consumer Helpline: 1915, or consumerhelpline.gov.in
CPGRAMS — Universal Grievance Fallback

If a specific department or portal isn't responding, this is the government-wide escalation route for any state or central government service.

Where To Escalate
