The Ghaziabad Development Authority approved the map of this township near the Hindon River in August.
The Ghaziabad Development Authority (GDA) recently started its land acquisition for the Harnandipuram Township projects. According to reports, the purchase and sale of the plots in the eight villages is set to be restricted soon. The authority will acquire 541.1 hectares of land. Many a time, outsiders often buy large amounts of land designated for a new project and later sell them at high prices earning significant profits. This practice often becomes a problem for the farmers, who are the real owners of the land.

According to a report by the Times of India, the Ghaziabad Development Authority approved the map of this township near the Hindon River in August, this year. The officials have also started the survey of the plots. GDA Secretary Rajesh Singh explained that outsiders tend to buy large amounts of land that are designated for the project, to gain significant profit. This practice highly affects the farmers who sell the land. To prevent this, Section 11 is set to be enforced soon in all the villages.
The official further mentioned that a notification would be issued within a month. “GDA is keeping a close watch on the acquisition of plots in the designated township area,” GDA Secretary Rajesh Singh added. However, farmers can continue to exchange land among themselves.
