Haryana Chief Minister Manohar Lal Khattar today said nodal officers will be appointed in all districts to identify land requirements of various departments for development projects so that the same could be met out of the land offered by farmers for sale on the e-bhoomi portal.

Khattar was presiding over a meeting to review the functioning of e-bhoomi portal of Haryana State Industrial and Infrastructure Development Corporation (HSIIDC) here today.

He said that concerned District Revenue Officer (DRO) could be appointed as the nodal officer for this purpose.

The chief minister said that as now the small chunks of land at different places could be consolidated at a single place for development purposes, a team of consolidation experts should be constituted in each district for the speedy execution of this work.
 

He directed that as the state government has decided to develop the 2 km area on both sides of Kundli-Manesar-Palwal (KMP) Expressway, the land requirement for the same should be prominently highlighted on the e-bhoomi portal so that the farmers could come forward with the land offers.

He also directed to make the registration process for aggregators more liberal and also organise workshops for them so as to acquaint them with the entire process, an official release said.

Earlier this year, the government had decided to implement the scheme under which it would purchase the landholdings of farmers with their consent through an 'e-Bhoomi' portal, and use the consolidated land for development works.

Under the scheme, the farmers would upload details including price of the landholdings that they wish to sell on the e-bhoomi portal, after which land would be purchased by the government as per requirement.
