He emphasized the need for a comprehensive and systematic approach towards land identification, ensuring that all such lands are properly classified based on their suitability for development purposes and other socio-economic welfare measures.<br \/>\nTo ensure accuracy and efficiency in the identification process, the Chief Secretary instructed the Forest Department to carry out GIS mapping of the identified land parcels in coordination with the Revenue Department. He stressed that joint ground-truthing must be conducted to validate the suitability of the land for either development projects or compensatory afforestation.<br \/>\nHighlighting the need for land classification, he suggested that land banks should be categorized into those fit for infrastructure development and those that should be reserved exclusively for afforestation as per Supreme Court guidelines.<br \/>\nCommissioner Secretary, Forests, Ecology &amp; Environment, Sheetal Nanda, informed the meeting that a Committee, led by the Principal Chief Conservator of Forests (PCCF), has been constituted to identify and create a land bank of suitable non-forest land for compensatory afforestation.<br \/>\nShe divulged that this initiative aligns with the Van (Sanrakshan Evam Samvardhan) Adhiniyam, 1980, ensuring that afforestation takes place in lieu of forest land diverted for non-forest purposes. She reiterated that this measure is in compliance with the Supreme Court\u2019s directive that no net reduction in forest land should occur without adequate compensatory afforestation.<br \/>\nProviding an update on the progress, PCCF (HoFF), Suresh Kumar Gupta, informed the meeting that 2,576 land parcels covering 553,263 kanal have been identified across J&amp;K for compensatory afforestation. Following joint inspections with the Revenue Department, 82 parcels measuring 14,797 kanal and 154 marla were found free from encumbrances and suitable for inclusion in the land bank for afforestation.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_27810\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-27810\" style=\"width: 300px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-27810\" src=\"https:\/\/jammubulletin.com\/site\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/CS-directs-for-creation-of-GIS-based-land-bank-for-JK-19-1536x697-1-300x136.jpeg\" alt=\"CS Atal Dulloo Asks For Creation Of GIS Based Land Bank For J&amp;K\" width=\"300\" height=\"136\" srcset=\"https:\/\/jammubulletin.com\/site\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/CS-directs-for-creation-of-GIS-based-land-bank-for-JK-19-1536x697-1-300x136.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/jammubulletin.com\/site\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/CS-directs-for-creation-of-GIS-based-land-bank-for-JK-19-1536x697-1-1024x465.jpeg 1024w, https:\/\/jammubulletin.com\/site\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/CS-directs-for-creation-of-GIS-based-land-bank-for-JK-19-1536x697-1-768x349.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/jammubulletin.com\/site\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/CS-directs-for-creation-of-GIS-based-land-bank-for-JK-19-1536x697-1-549x249.jpeg 549w, https:\/\/jammubulletin.com\/site\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/CS-directs-for-creation-of-GIS-based-land-bank-for-JK-19-1536x697-1-470x213.jpeg 470w, https:\/\/jammubulletin.com\/site\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/CS-directs-for-creation-of-GIS-based-land-bank-for-JK-19-1536x697-1-233x106.jpeg 233w, https:\/\/jammubulletin.com\/site\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/CS-directs-for-creation-of-GIS-based-land-bank-for-JK-19-1536x697-1-230x104.jpeg 230w, https:\/\/jammubulletin.com\/site\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/CS-directs-for-creation-of-GIS-based-land-bank-for-JK-19-1536x697-1-360x163.jpeg 360w, https:\/\/jammubulletin.com\/site\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/CS-directs-for-creation-of-GIS-based-land-bank-for-JK-19-1536x697-1-100x45.jpeg 100w, https:\/\/jammubulletin.com\/site\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/CS-directs-for-creation-of-GIS-based-land-bank-for-JK-19-1536x697-1.jpeg 1536w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-27810\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">CS Atal Dulloo Asks For Creation Of GIS Based Land Bank For J&amp;K<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>JAMMU, Mar 19: Chief Secretary, Atal Dulloo, today chaired a high level meeting to review identification of land parcels for creation of a land bank to support developmental projects besides facilitating compensatory afforestation in lieu of forest land diverted for infrastructure projects, in compliance with Supreme Court directives.
