by Haryananewswire
CHANDIGARH, MAY 29
Haryana Town and Country Planning Department has invited suggestions on the newly framed policy for adequate existing approach to the applied area for grant of license under the Haryana Development and Regulation of Urban Areas Act, 1975. While stating this here today, a spokesman of department said that suggestions in this regard by general public and all other stakeholders could be forwarded through e-mail totcphry2@gmail.com, ctp1.haryana.tcp@gmail.com ordtp.hqpp.tcp@gmail.com upto July 27, 2014. The revised policy is available on website www.tcpharyana.gov.in.
Giving details about the revised policy parameters, he said that the condition required for the site to be considered to have a category –I existing approach for the purpose of grant of licence included minimum required width of the existing approach to the applied land is through a public road or rasta of not less than 4-karam (22 ft) further linking to a higher order existing road or public rasta. However, the licence applications where exiting approach to the site is through a minimum 11 ft. wide road may also be considered in case the applied site abuts acquired alignment of the sector road and there is not stay regarding construction on the land falling under the abutting section road.
Any pending licence application received prior to January 24, 2011 where existing approach is from public rasta of less than 22 ft width would also be required to provide an existing approach of at least 22 ft width to be considered for grant of licence. However, its seniority shall not be affected on account of provision of such 4 karam rasta at a later date in case any such applicant is able to fulfill existing approach norms within three months of issuance of this policy excluding any such period involved in procedural formalities of any Government agency concerned.
The existing approach to an applied site shall also be considered as adequate for grant of licence provided it fulfills criteria that the applied site abuts any already constructed sector road or internal circulation road of approved sectoral plan (of min. 18m/24m width as the case may be) provided its entire stretch required for approach is licensed and is further leading up to at least 4 karam wide public rasta.
The applied site, even though not abutting any public rasta is accessible from a minimum 4 karam wide rasta through adjoining own land of the applicant (but not applied for licence).The applicant shall however be required to donate at least 4 karam wide strip from its adjoining own land in favour of the Gram Panchayat/Municipality in order to connect the applied site to existing 4 karam rasta. The seniority of the application in such case shall be considered from the date of mutation of such adjoining land in favour of the applicant or the date of application for licence, whichever is later, irrespective of the date of hibbanama entered in favour of Gram Panchayat/Municipality.
The applied site, even though not abutting any public rasta is accessible from a minimum 4 karam wide rasta through adjoining other’s land and the land-owner of the adjoining land donates at least 4 karam wide strip of land to the Gram Panchayat/Municipality, in a manner that the applied site gets connected to existing public rasta of at least 4 karam width. The seniority of the application in such case shall be considered from the date of registration of the hibbanama in favour of the Gram Panchayat/Municipality.
Under category II, in case the applied site relies on any other existing approach of minimum 4 karam width for the purpose of grant of licence including that from an internal constructed road of a licenced plotted colony (other than 24m/18m wide road as approved in the sectoral plan), and, excluding any temporary approach through an integrated licensed colony, the same shall be examined on merits on case-to-case basis, and shall be further subject to that the Director may allow such proposal in case he is satisfied that the same is in the overall interest of comprehensive planned development of the sector/ colony. Any such approval shall however be subject to the compliance of necessary conditions/ safeguards by the applicant as may be specified by the Director. The seniority of such applications shall be considered from the date when the Director grants its approval for such approach upon the compliance of conditions as specified by the Director.
It is however clarified that, the policy parameters as above shall not be applicable on any licence application for additional area contiguous to an already licensed colony, provided the earlier licensed area fulfills any of the existing approach road parameters as indicated above. This policy shall also not have any bearing on the merits of any licence that stands granted before the issuance of this policy. This policy shall be applicable from the date when finalised policy instructions in this regard are issued.
