The Land Acquisition Ordinance, which the Centre could not get converted into a legislation in the Rajya Sabha due to stiff opposition, was on Friday re-promulgated.
President Pranab Mukherjee signed the ordinance as recommended by the Union Cabinet on March 31.
The earlier ordinance is to lapse on Saturday as it has not been converted into a legislation during the first part of the Budget Session as required under the Constitution.
The fresh ordinance, which is the 11th by the NDA Government, incorporates nine amendments that were part of the bill passed in Lok Sabha last month.
It is pending before the Rajya Sabha where the ruling NDA coalition lacks the numbers to get it passed.
