Issues Related To Assigned Lands To Be Resolved Within A Month: Union Minister Pemmasani

Timeline for Resolving Assigned Land Issues

Union Minister Pemmasani Chandrasekhar said that issues pertaining to allotted land will be sorted out within a month. He said that the decisions would be made only after the soil tests are over. He spoke to the media after inspecting the activities of CRDA.

Status of Development Works:

The Minister said that development activity has commenced in the Undavalli layout. The Minister said that problems pertaining to riverbank plots are settled. The Minister said that the registration of approximately 7,000 plots is still pending.

Issues Related to Land Pooling & Plot Allocation

Pemmasani Chandrasekhar said that difficulties are still existing for people who were allocated plots in areas that are not under the land pooling scheme. This is because, after discussions with farmers, the MLA and Minister will proceed with land acquisition. Lands will be allotted to people who desired plots in different areas via a lottery system. But people who are eligible for larger plots might need to take a longer waiting period.

Vastu Requests and Project Planning

The Minister said that some beneficiaries demanded plots meant for commercial purposes, which need to be designed in accordance with Vastu principles. He clarified that this would call for alteration in nearly seven acres. The Minister appealed to the farmers not to make demands pertaining to Vastu again.

The Plan for the Development of Villages

Pemmasani Chandrasekhar said that Detailed Project Reports are being prepared for development works in 26 villages. The project reports would be completed within a week, he said. The development works would begin by the end of the month, he said. In the context of social development, construction of community halls, as well as crematoriums, would be taken up by the government, he said. The respective land and funds would be allocated for such development, he said. The workforce in the capital villages' sanitation department would be strengthened, he said.
