The Haryana Consolidation of Project Land (Special Provisions) Act, 2017
General201718 sections
This Haryana law allows the state government to combine scattered land parcels into a single project area when it owns or has bought at least seventy percent of the land. It applies to projects where private land remains interspersed with state-owned land. The state appoints a competent authority to manage the process, which involves notifying landowners of their right to either receive cash compensation based on market rates or swap their land for an equal area of state land. If owners do not respond, the authority decides the final arrangement, ensuring the project can proceed smoothly by removing fragmented ownership.
