Urban Redevelopment along Metro Using Land Re-Adjustment as a Tool

The land is a limited and non-renewable resource. So it should be put to the most judicious use. The rapid urban population growth is creating an increased demand for land and a higher demand for serviced land in urban areas. The constitution of India grants the right to acquire hold and dispose of property to every Indian citizen. It, however, allows the state to impose restrictions on property and its acquisition in public interest. Different states like Haryana, M.P., U.P., Punjab and TamilNadu have formulated Land Supply Models Keeping in focus the land requirements for urban poor. In this research, explaining different urban land management techniques and land management models used along metro rail in different region of India. Redevelopment is an improvement, which ensures that residents of a community are empowered to improve their quality of life and environment as a result of local planning area. Land readjustment is an essential tool used for the re-organization of urban areas. It aims to convert unplanned parcels into suitable forms of development plots for public and private use according to town planning requirements. Hence, land readjustment method maintains great opportunities to the solution of Land-Use problems (Urban Sprawl, Unplanned Settlement, Urban Density and Urban Sprawl etc.) in urban-fringe areas. Also including other aspects of community development such as design, preservation of historic assets, public spaces, and promotion of environmental justice, environmental remediation and even issues that enhance the level of social services provided to neighbourhood residents. Based on this model, we are trying to explain that instead of settling new cities/towns, we need to focus to develop or improve the existing area only and make that area habitable, then perhaps we will be able to use the land properly.
