Land Pooling Technique
#1

The Gujarat Town Planning and Urban Development Act, 1976 has also been modified to allow appropriation of land to create a land bank. Development Authority is allowed to sell such land bank or use the same to raise the resources to implement T.P. Schemes. As such now Authority need not wait for the finalization and approval of the scheme and to implement Scheme. Success of Town Planning scheme can be assessed from the fact that in Gujarat as many as about 150 Town Planning Scheme are in operation and T.P. Schemes have become a very useful tool for implementing Development Plan proposals.

The T.P. Schemes has successfully tried in Ahmedabad and other large cities of Gujarat and Maharashtra. With the help of public awareness programme it can also be implemented smoothly in various small and medium towns. All such land-pooling scheme if prepared within the framework of development plan would reduce drastically the time taken during the process of approval.

Development Plan Formulation and Implementation (UDPFI) Guidelines prepared by the Ministry of Urban Development and Poverty Alleviation, the T.P. Scheme termed as Land Pooling Scheme has been included as a technique for assembling land for planning and development. A separate chapter on Land Pooling Scheme has also been included in the Model Urban and Regional Planning and Development Law. It envisages that every planning and development authority shall for the purpose of implementation of the plan proposals contained in the plan, prepare one or more land pooling schemes for any part of the area within its jurisdiction. It also provides time frame and procedure for preparation, approval and implementation of land Pooling Scheme.
