Variation of scheme

(i) If after the final scheme has come into force, the Authority considers that the scheme is defective on account of an error, irregularity or infirmity or that the scheme needs variation or modifications of a minor nature, the Authority may apply in writing to the State Government for variation of the scheme. (ii) If, on receiving such application or otherwise, the State Government is satisfied that the variation required is not substantial, the State Government shall, by notification in the Official Gazette, authorize the Authority to prepare a draft of such variation and publish a notice in the Official Gazette, and is such other manner as may be prescribed stating that a draft variation has been prepared. (iii) The notice of preparation of draft variation under sub-section (ii) shall state every amendment proposed to be made in the scheme, and if any such amendment relates to a matter specified in any of the clauses (ii) of section 83, the draft variation shall also contain such other particulars as may be prescribed. (iv) The draft variation shall be open to the inspection of the public at the office of the Authority during office hours and copies of such draft variation or any abstract therefrom certified to be correct shall be available for sale to the public at a reasonable price.
