This Act governs how land is developed and buildings are constructed throughout the entire state of Goa. It establishes a legal framework to control and regulate these activities, ensuring that development happens according to specific rules rather than previous, potentially conflicting laws. By giving the government the power to create detailed regulations on zoning, land use, and development permissions, the Act aims to manage urban growth, preserve the environment, and ensure that construction projects comply with the state's planning requirements.
