Haryana Launches Town Planning Scheme for Residential Housing in 66 Small Municipalities
Haryana has introduced a town planning scheme to promote planned residential plotted housing in 66 small municipal councils and committees within its low-potential urban development zone. The scheme aims to curb unauthorised colonies by allowing developers to undertake projects on a minimum of five acres without declaring controlled areas, which are typically used to regulate land use in more developed municipalities. Approved by the Haryana Cabinet on July 28 and notified on July 30, the policy seeks to provide a comprehensive framework addressing housing needs while avoiding undue restrictions in early-stage urban areas.
