Union cabinet's approval -jlnpt land

 

23-August-2012 19:24 IST Transfer of 111 hectares of Jawaharlal Nehru Port Trust (JNPT) land to the Government of Maharashtra
The Union Cabinet today approved the following:

(a) to transfer 111 hectares of JNPT land to Government of Maharashtra for allotment to Project Affected Persons (PAPs)of JNPT in line with the Government of Maharashtra scheme for PAPs of Navi Mumbai Project of the City and Industrial Development Corporation of Maharashtra Ltd., (CIDCO); and

(b) to allow JNPT to transfer to CIDCO the cost of development of minimum amenities which will be finalized in consultation with Government of Maharashtra/ CIDCO) on the said 111 hectares of land, after obtaining approval of the competent appraisal/approval authority.

This decision will settle, once and for all, the long pending demand of JNPT PAPs pending for last 27 years and give the PAPs, who had to give their land for the port project, a share in the benefits of the project. The Project Affected Persons will now be entitled to developed land equal to 12.5% of the land that was acquired from them during 1983-86. Settlement of this long pending rehabilitation issue will enable smooth development and operation of the port.

JNPT is one of the major ports of the country located at Sheva, Navi Mumbai in Raigad district of Maharashtra. It was constructed in the mid 1980's and commissioned on 26.5.1989. About 1172 hectare of private land was acquired for the then Nhava Sheva Port Project (NSPT) (now JNPT) through CIDCO during 1983-86. Since then PAPs of JNPT have been agitating for allotment of developed land as was allowed to PAPs of Navi Mumbai Project of CIDCO by the Government of Maharashtra.
