Land Transfer For Corridor Project
The land, located at Poman village in Vasai taluka and covering Survey/Group Nos. 211/1 and 211/2/1, has been handed over to MSRDC for the project.
The Virar-Alibaug corridor has been classified by the state government as an “urgent public project”. Accordingly, the land has been transferred under Occupancy Class-II tenure at a nominal rate of Rs 1 per square metre, in accordance with the provisions of the Maharashtra Land Revenue Code, 1966.
The transfer comes with specific conditions. The land can be used exclusively for the approved Virar-Alibaug corridor project. If the designated use is discontinued, the land will have to be returned to the Maharashtra government without compensation.
Govt Aims To Accelerate Work
Bawankule said the Virar-Alibaug Multi-Modal Corridor was a transformative infrastructure project that would significantly improve connectivity between the Mumbai Metropolitan Region and the Konkan region.
