Haryana's New Policy targets Illegal commercialisation

21 Sep 2023 CW Team

Haryana's Chief Minister has announced a new policy aimed at addressing the issue of illegal commercialisation in residential areas. This move comes as the state grapples with the increasing trend of properties intended for residential use being illegally converted into commercial spaces.

The policy, which has been eagerly awaited by residents and local authorities, seeks to establish stricter regulations and penalties for those found guilty of converting residential properties into commercial establishments without proper permits. It also outlines measures to streamline the approval process for legitimate commercial ventures in residential zones, promoting a more regulated and organised approach to urban development.

The announcement has garnered support from various stakeholders, including homeowners' associations and city planning experts, who see it as a step towards maintaining the sanctity of residential neighbourhoods while fostering planned economic growth in designated commercial areas.

With this policy, Haryana aims to strike a balance between the need for commercial spaces and the preservation of residential neighbourhoods, ultimately contributing to more sustainable urban development in the state.
