NAREDCO supports MoEF

The National Real Estate Development Council (NAREDCO) recently congratulated the Government of India, Ministry of Environment and Forests for setting up guidelines for speedy approvals of projects submitted for environment clearance. The guidelines will ensure that the projects are cleared by both State Environment Impact Assessment Authority (SEIAA) and State Expert Appraisal Committee (SEAC) within six months of submission of all relevant documents as against one to two years required currently. In the present day, nearly 1,000 proposals are pending for such clearances with various environment departments or committees across India. Contact: NAREDCO. Tel: 011-2622 5795. Fax: 011-2622 5796.
