Master plans for 7 towns approved

Posted on Saturday, 24 September 2011 by Punjabi Articles


The Punjab Government today approved the master plans for seven towns- Rajpura, Nawanshahr, Jagraon, Roopnagar, Pathankot, Gurdaspur and Kapurthala- to ensure integrated development. 

A decision to this effect was taken at the 23rd meeting of the Punjab Regional Town Planning and Development Board under the chairmanship of Chief Minister Parkash Singh Badal at his residence this morning.

A government spokesperson said that Badal had directed PUDA to “accommodate” objections received by the general public. It was also decided that GMADA would invite objections to the mix land use policy for agricultural land on one side of the Zirakpur-Banur road near Chhat village, that had been included in the master plan as agriculture land earlier. With a view to regularising various facilities for Zirakpur residents, it was decided to fix the upper limit of population density at 300 persons per acre.

Meanwhile, the Council of Ministers, at its meeting today, approved the hike in the honorarium paid to nambardars from Rs 500 to Rs 1,000 per month from October 1. 

The government has appointed 31,684 nambardars, who are discharging various duties defined under Rule 20 of the Punjab Land Revenue Rules, 1909, which mainly include matters related to land revenue.
