Maharashtra Govt Sanctions Land for Gadchiroli Sewage Treatment Plant Maharashtra’s government has approved the transfer of 2.04 hectares of state land in Gadchiroli for the construction of a sewage treatment plant (STP) under the AMRUT scheme, resolving a long-standing obstacle in the city’s wastewater management project. The decision was prompted by directives from Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis, following which Revenue Minister Chandrashekhar Bawankule sanctioned the proposal to allocate land from Survey No. 48 at Mouza Gadchiroli to the Gadchiroli Municipal Council on an occupancy basis. A government resolution issued by the Revenue and Forest Department outlined that the land transfer would occur after the recovery of the prescribed value under the Maharashtra Land Revenue Code. The STP is part of the AMRUT (Atal Mission for Rejuvenation and Urban Transformation) initiative, which aims to expand urban infrastructure and civic amenities across the state. Authorities emphasized that the project will address persistent issues of untreated wastewater discharge and support urban development in Gadchiroli. The approval comes with several conditions. The allocated land can be used exclusively for the STP project and cannot be diverted for any other purpose. The municipal council is required to obtain all necessary permissions from planning authorities and comply with environmental regulations and statutory clearances before project execution. Additionally, the government retains the right to reclaim the land in case of violations or misuse of the allotted property. Officials from the Revenue Department stated that the state is committed to expediting administrative procedures for public welfare infrastructure projects to ensure timely implementation.#devendra_fadnavis #maharashtra_govt #chandrashekhar_bawankule #gadchiroli_municipal_council #amrut_scheme

From Red Corridor To Economic Hub, Rs 6500cr Pumped Into 140 Projects In Gadchiroli Nagpur: Once the fulcrum of the Red Corridor with 20 guerrilla formations and the dreaded Company 10 housed in the rebel headquarters of Abujmarh, Gadchiroli is now surging ahead as a vibrant economic corridor with 140 development projects of Rs 6,500 crore kicking off, over and above the mega projects, including a steel hub announced by chief minister Devendra Fadnavis. This transformation is powered by the government's massive infrastructure push, which is monitored by district collector Avishyant Panda. These initiatives are rapidly bridging the infrastructure gap that once helped sustain insurgency, with focus on roads, bridges, irrigation, health facilities, and urban amenities. "Roads and bridges are improving connectivity in remote forested areas that were long inaccessible due to security concerns," said an official. The public works department (roads) is executing seven key projects of almost ₹2,100 crore, while the National Highways division is handling eight works valued at almost ₹900 crore. Notable initiatives include the 28km Ghugus to Rajoli road (₹199 crore), the 36.9-km Gadchiroli to Armori stretch (₹498.06 crore), and multiple upgrades on NH-353C and NH-930. Several bridges and culverts have been completed or are advancing steadily, with many receiving Stage-II environmental and forest clearances. "The all-weather roads and sturdy bridges are reducing travel time and enhancing market access for tribal farmers," said a key official from Gadchiroli district administration office. Irrigation projects are transforming the rural economy by bringing water to vast tracts of land previously under Maoist influence.#devendra_fadnavis #gadchiroli #avishyant_panda #national_highways_division #gadchiroli_municipal_council
