Visited Village ‘Jhuljhuli’ to discuss the issue of land pooling policy
Land pooling is a process where individual landowners come together to pool their land, which is then redeveloped and redistributed back to them. This is typically done to create more efficient land use, promote development, and provide public infrastructure. The policy of land pooling is becoming increasingly popular in many countries, including India, where it is seen as an effective tool for urban development.
The Centre for Law and Urban Development recently visited Jhuljhuli to discuss the issue of land pooling policy. The visit was led by the centre director Premchand and member Aman Saini, along with Vatsal Jindal and Harjap. The purpose of the visit was to understand the challenges and opportunities presented by land pooling in Jhuljhuli, and to identify ways to make the policy more effective and inclusive.
During the visit, the team engaged with local stakeholders, including landowners, developers, and government officials. They also visited several sites where land pooling had been implemented to see firsthand the impact of the policy on the local community. Through these interactions, the team was able to gain valuable insights into the strengths and weaknesses of the land pooling policy in Jhuljhuli.
Overall, the visit highlighted the importance of engaging with local communities when implementing land pooling policies. It also emphasized the need for policies that are transparent, inclusive, and responsive to the needs of all stakeholders. By working together, policymakers, developers, and local communities can create a more equitable and sustainable future for Jhuljhuli and other urban areas in India.
