BHEL Refuses to Hand Over Vacant Land for Joint Venture Project

BHEL Refuses to Hand Over Vacant Land for Joint Venture Project

The state government of Madhya Pradesh wants to use some land in Bhopal to build a new hi-tech city.

This land was given to a company called BHEL many years ago, but now some of it is not being used.

The state government and BHEL had a meeting and agreed to share the cost of the project, but BHEL later said no because they want to use the land for their own projects.

Now, the state government is going to ask the central government for help to get the land back.

The land is quite big, and some people have even built houses on it without permission.

The state government wants to make the new city like a famous one in Gujarat called Gift City.
