He made it clear that the people have the right to know about the exact jurisdiction of the aforesaid plan. He divulged that 90 new villages have been added in the Master Plan and it is imperative that the people should know this fact besides having precise knowledge of the Khasra Numbers of the villages being incorporated in the Master Plan 2032.
Bharat Bhushan also gave directions to JDA for simplifying the procedure for granting permissions for the convenience of people intending to construct their houses.
