The Minister assured the state’s real estate developers that recommendations submitted to the State Government— relating to new town planning, sewage and water management, recycling of water, and incentives to industry — would be duly considered in accordance with the current needs of the sector.
However, Mrs. Bordikar remained non-committal on the issue of rationalizing stamp duty in Maharashtra. She added that while no immediate promises could be made on that front, the Government is committed to doing its best for progressive infrastructure development, which it is already actively pursuing under the current regime.
The State of Maharashtra is also prioritizing sustainable development to address water scarcity. Plans include revamping water resources and ponds for improved yield. With support from the Central Government, Maharashtra is also focusing on river connectivity and extending subsidies for primary infrastructure and basic amenities.
