After the state finance Minister Ajit Pawar allotted ₹26,000 crore for the Pune ring road project in the state budget on March 8th, the Maharashtra State Road Development Corporation (MSRDC) has started the land acquisition for this project.
The MSRDC is aiming to complete this process before the Monsoon season. The ring road is proposed in two parts, east, and west. The Joint Measurement Survey (JMS) is going to begin in 38 villages in the western part in the next few days and is expected to be completed in 15 days. Also, the detailed requirement of land in the eastern part will be declared in the next 15 days and after that, the acquisition will begin in the affected 46 villages in this part.
“We aim to complete the land acquisition process before monsoon. We have started the process of land acquisition for the Pune ring road project. For the western part, the Joint Measurement Survey (JMS) process is going to begin now. We have sent notifications/notices to all the stakeholders. After the JMS town planning department will do the evaluation process and then finally the money will be transferred to the villagers’ accounts,” said Sandeep Patil, sub-divisional engineer Maharashtra State Road Development Corporation (MSRDC).
The MSRDC has appointed Monarch Surveys and Consultants for aiding in land acquisition proceedings and related activities for the construction of the ring road.
The Pune ring road is a proposed circular outer road for the Pune Metropolitan region.
The state government has given a nod to land acquisition for the 173.70-km ring road project. It is to be implemented by the Maharashtra State Road Development Corporation (MSRDC). The Ring Road project would require the acquisition of almost 1,600 hectares of land. The total project cost of this road is ₹26,000 crore and ₹5,000 crore is estimated for the land acquisition.
