Sites for vehicle filling stations to be auctioned

Published on: 

In Haryana, the sites for vehicle filling stations including petrol pumps, CNG filling stations and electric vehicle charging stations would be allotted through auction to bring more transparency in the allotment process. 

A decision to this effect was taken at a meeting of Haryana Shehri Vikas Pradhikaran (HSVP) held under the chairmanship of Chief Minister Manohar lal here on Friday. 

The Chief Minister said that though currently petrol pump sites are allotted to the petroleum companies instead of individual yet the decision to allot sites for petrol pumps, CNG filling stations and electric vehicle charging stations only through the auction would make the entire allotment process more transparent. 

He also directed that allotment of plots in the auto market Sector-12 Bahadurgarh should also be made through auction at lower price on collector rates of Rs 32,292 per square meters in the interest of trade. 

Manohar lal further asked HSVP to make all its 50 services online to facilitate the people and ensure that they need not to make frequent round to the offices to get their work done.

The State Government has decided to launch  over 325 citizen centric services and schemes of 31 Departments on the SARAl platform on April 14 this year, said he.

The Chief Minister was apprised that 12 different services of HSVP had been made online and efforts are being made to integrate the remaining services with SARAl portal by April 14. During the meeting, it was informed that the State Government has amended the policy for regularization of nursing homes running from residential premises.

It was also informed that in order to provide the benefit of increased floor area ratio (FAR) permissible in the notified transit oriented development (TOD) zones to allottees of HSVP, the TOD policy of Town and Country Planning Department has been adopted with appropriate modifications for implementation of transit oriented development in HSVP areas.
