In order to make it lucrative for fresh overseas investments into the state, the Uttar Pradesh government has taken several decisions to enhance its land bank. It has amended the Revenue Code and also decided to simplify the process of land acquisition within a distance of one kilometre on both sides of the expressways under the Land Acquisition Act 2013.
Industrial Development minister Satish Mahana and chief secretary Rajendra Kumar Tiwari held a meeting with key officials of 18 departments to discuss the issue of increasing land bank in Uttar Pradesh.
