GANDHINAGAR: The state has hit the highway to land reforms. A ministerial-level group, headed by state finance minister Vajubhai Vala, has given
an ‘in principle’ go-ahead to the proposal to throw open one-km stretches flanking national and state highways for industrial use. The move, which will clear a crucial bottleneck of getting a non-agricultural (NA) use permission, now awaits a Cabinet nod.
A pilot project will be carried out in Ahmedabad to ensure that the plan is implemented in a smooth manner across Gujarat. Mooted by the state industries department, the proposal said there should be no need for an NA clearance to buy land for industrial use along the highways criss-crossing the state.

The state government has reportedly decided to put its much-touted Integrated Township Policy on the backburner. It has now mooted a proposal for a fresh policy for the planned development of housing sectors in and around all major cities and towns of Gujarat. In 2007, the government had announced the Gujarat Integrated Township Policy at the Vibrant Gujarat Urban Summit in Ahmedabad. The state Urban Development department had even inked MoUs with prospective developers promising investment proposals worth Rs 1.08 lakh crore at the Summit. But even after over two years, the government could not implement the policy due to “some lacunae” in it.
