HSVP To Procure 17,000 Acres In Gurugram Via e-Bhoomi Portal

06 Mar 2026 CW Team

Haryana Shahari Vikas Pradhikaran (HSVP) will procure 17,000 acres in Gurugram via the e-Bhoomi portal. The acquisition is intended to support planned urban development and infrastructure projects across the district. The authority said the digital route would promote greater transparency and efficiency in land records and transactions. Officials added that the procurement will follow statutory procedures and aim to minimise disruption for existing land users.

The e-Bhoomi portal, an online land record platform, will be used to identify titles, verify ownership and process registrations digitally. HSVP expects the portal to reduce delays associated with manual documentation and provide clearer ownership trails for acquired parcels. Officials indicated digital verification would aid in faster settlement of compensation and statutory compliance. The authority plans to link cadastral maps and title histories to the portal to create a comprehensive digital record for each plot.

The parcels are reported to span multiple sectors and peri-urban belts of Gurugram and will be integrated into broader plans for housing, roads and utilities. HSVP anticipates collaboration with municipal bodies and utility agencies to align acquisitions with the master plan. Community consultations and legal clearances will be pursued prior to final transfer and development. Acquired land will be scheduled into phases to match infrastructure provisioning and financial planning by the authority.

The move is described as part of efforts to streamline land acquisition and accelerate development in a rapidly urbanising region. Observers said the use of an online procurement route could become a model for other state agencies, subject to robust safeguards. HSVP will provide updates and timelines on the portal as the process unfolds. Mechanisms for monitoring progress and addressing grievances will be established to ensure accountability and public confidence.
