(2) The State Government may withhold the modification or withdrawal referred to him or in approving it: Provided that in case the State Government approves the modification, it shall cause the modification to be published in the Official Gazette by the Chief Town Planner, in the prescribed manner; Provided further that in case the State Government approves of the withdrawal, it shall cause the fact to be notified in the Official Gazette by the Chief Town Planner.
