Goa Housing Board to Develop Private Orchard Land
Imagine the government of Goa wants to help people build houses.
They've decided to team up with people who own large orchard lands.
The government will help develop the land into plots.
Then, they will sell some of the plots to locals who want to build homes, helping them have a place to live.
The landowners get to keep some of the developed land too.
This way, the government can make money and help people find affordable homes.
Goa Housing Board (GHB) will develop private orchard land in a joint venture with landowners.
Landowners must have a minimum of 50,000 sqm of land to partner with the GHB.
GHB will develop plots and auction its share to locals for house construction.
The remaining developed plots will be handed over to the landowner.
This initiative aims to provide affordable housing and generate revenue for the GHB.
