In a significant development, Chief Minister Pramod Sawant of Goa unveiled a proposal to legalize irregular structures on comunidade or private land through an ordinance or bill. Sawant emphasized the government’s intention to draw a clear distinction between irregular and illegal constructions, with strict measures to be taken against the latter in compliance with High Court directives. This initiative aims to address the issue of unauthorized constructions in the state and provide a framework for regularization within the legal framework. By introducing this plan, the government seeks to balance the need for development while upholding the rule of law. The move is expected to bring relief to property owners facing uncertainties due to the irregular status of their structures. It is also likely to streamline the process for obtaining necessary approvals and clearances for such properties. The proposal reflects the government’s commitment to promoting sustainable development and ensuring compliance with regulations to maintain the state’s architectural and environmental integrity. Stakeholders and residents are encouraged to stay informed about the progress of this initiative as it unfolds, as it could have far-reaching implications for property owners in Goa.
