Vadhvan Port Project Secures Crucial Land Acquisition
The Palghar district administration has achieved a significant milestone in its efforts to revamp the region's maritime infrastructure with the successful acquisition of 62 hectares of land for the Vadhvan port project.
As part of the initiative, a comprehensive package worth Rs 2,300 crore has been allocated to benefit approximately 10,000 landholders who will be impacted by the project.
Compensation Process Simplified
Authorities have made significant strides in resolving historical 'Gola Survey' issues, which have previously caused delays in compensation processing.
The acquisition of the 62-hectare land for the deep-draft, all-weather greenfield port marks a vital step towards the district's development roadmap.
Support for Affected Parties
- 20 special camps have been set up in Dahanu and Palghar to assist with inheritance documentation.
- These camps have addressed 350 cases as part of a transparent compensation process.
- Affected parties are encouraged to submit necessary documents promptly for timely payment deposits directly into their bank accounts.
