CM Yogi Adityanath: The Yogi Adityanath government has taken an important decision regarding agricultural land located in urban areas of Uttar Pradesh. Under this, from now on, no construction can be done on agricultural land without permission, the Yogi government has taken this decision in view of illegal residential and commercial construction on agricultural land located in cities.
UP government’s Principal Secretary Housing P Guruprasad has issued an order related to this. It has been clearly stated in this government order that it has been made mandatory to take NOC from the concerned development authority before any kind of construction on agricultural land. In such a situation, orders have also been given to immediately stop the construction work without permission.
Mandatory to take permission before construction
It has been said in the government order that an order was also issued by the government in the year 2022 in this regard. But, it was not strictly followed by the Divisional Commissioner and District Magistrates. From now on, if the agricultural land located under the Development Authority and Special Development Area is being used for someone instead of farming, then it will be necessary to take permission for it first.
The authority has taken this decision in view of the increasing illegal residential and commercial construction on agricultural land. This order will be able to curb land mafias and stop illegal construction in authority areas. According to the order, the District Magistrate and Divisional Commissioner will have to first check the NOC of the authority before granting permission for construction on agricultural land.
If the NOC is not received, then in such a situation construction will not be allowed. In view of the illegal construction going on in the state, this order of the Yogi government is being considered very important.
