West Bengal to scrap urban land ceiling act, finance minister Dasgupta says
West Bengal's new BJP government is set to abolish the Urban Land Ceiling Act, a move long demanded by industries. This legislation, which restricted private land ownership and hindered industrial growth, will be scrapped to unlock developable land and attract significant investments. The government also plans to revitalize derelict industrial sites in Kolkata, prioritizing them over agricultural land for urban development and economic expansion.
