In a significant move aimed at improving the living conditions of residents across 14 districts in Haryana, Chief Minister Manohar Lal Khattar has announced the regularization of an additional 303 unauthorised colonies. The decision, which comes into immediate effect, is accompanied by a substantial allocation of Rs 3,000 crore for comprehensive infrastructure development within these settlements.
These unauthorised colonies consist of 193 under 39 municipal bodies and 110 governed by the Town and Country Planning Department. Khattar highlighted that these colonies collectively house 2,90,540 properties. The regularization is expected to bring much-needed relief and development to a population of over 10 lakh residents in these areas.
The focus of this initiative includes essential amenities such as sewer lines, water supply, roads, street lights, parks, and other development works across more than 400 regularized colonies in urban areas.
Furthermore, Chief Minister Khattar also announced a complete waiver of taxes and penalties on outstanding property tax, a decision estimated to provide direct benefits worth approximately Rs 8,000 crore to property owners in the state.
According to an official statement, these notified colonies occupy a total land area of 5,000 acres. The government has pledged to invest Rs 60 lakh per acre to create civic facilities and execute other development projects within these colonies.
In August, Chief Minister Khattar had declared the regularization of 450 unauthorised colonies situated beyond municipal limits, falling under the purview of the Town and Country Planning Department. Out of these, 1,507 colonies were identified on a designated portal, with 936 from urban local bodies and 571 in controlled areas. Khattar expressed determination that these remaining colonies would also be regularized by January 31, 2024, with stringent monitoring in place to prevent the growth of unauthorized colonies.
Since assuming office in 2014, the Haryana state government has already regularized a total of 1,438 colonies. Khattar also disclosed that the sale and purchase of sale deeds in unauthorised colonies were initially prohibited. However, the government has made concessions and recognized sale deeds executed before July 1, 2022, with those who registered their sale deeds or agreements to sell considered to have legally sold their properties.
Additionally, Chief Minister Khattar unveiled the "Mukhyamantri Shehri Awas Yoiana" scheme, aimed at providing housing to economically weaker sections of the state. Under this initiative, one lakh houses or plots will be allocated to eligible families, with applications being sent to families earning less than Rs 1.80 lakh annually and lacking a house. So far, two lakh people have applied for the scheme.
Lastly, Chief Minister Khattar addressed the issue of cotton crop losses due to pink bollworm pest attacks in certain districts of the state. He announced the launch of a "kshatipurti portal" to provide compensation to affected farmers at rates ranging from Rs 7,000 to 15,000 per acre. Additionally, for farmers who re-sowed paddy due to losses caused by flooding in July, a compensation rate of Rs 7,000 per acre was announced.
