Haryana Cabinet which met under the Chairmanship of Chief Minister, Sh. Nayab Singh Saini here today approved the amendment in the Haryana Village Common Lands (Regulation) Act, 1961.
Act No. 19 of 2024 has excluded land in Shamilat Deh, which the Collector leased out before the commencement of the Punjab Village Common Lands (Regulation) Rules, 1964, under the Haryana Utilization of Lands Act, 1949, for a period of 20 years, from the ambit of Shamilat Deh. As a result, the authorities have approved the deletion of the provision related to leasing such lands.
