Village- Rase Tal-Khed, Dist- Pune. Our land bearing Gat No. 174 is in village Rase. The Gat No. 174 and other nearby area is proposed for Small Scale industry by Maharashtra Industrial Development Corporation and this area is adjacent to the industrial Zone. Therefore we have established our plant for machinery work and threading work company over here. But there is no road facility available for transportation of raw material and vehicle. Our company Gat No. 174 is near Chakan Alandi main road. The existing Chakan-Alandi main road passes through Reserved forest land of Village Chakan (Medankarwadi) which is adjacent to Gayran revenue land Gat No. 244. The mentioned Gayran Revenue land is adjacent to our Gat No.174 of 2 Village Rase Tal-Khed District-Pune. The existing Chakan-Alandi main road passes through forest Comptt No. 265 Gat No.242. As the need of company activities, we decided to construct approach road from existing Chakan-Alandi main road which is 373m. The forest area admeasuring 0.60 ha. (373m x 16 m=5968m. i.e.0.60 ha.) to be required for this approach road which is proposed & passing through forest Comptt No. 265 S.No.282 Gat No.242 of Village Chakan (Medankarwadi) Tal.Khed, Dist-Pune. The existing Chakan-Alandi main road passes through forest Comptt No. 265 Gat No.242. The forest area as well as the exisiting Chakan –Alandi Main road lies exactly between revenue land Gat No.244 and our company land Gat No.174. Tested all alternative non forest land for this purpose but it is not possible to avoid the forest land because the mentioned road exist in the forest land. The forest area demanded is the barest minimum and immediate requirement for the proposed project and there is no alternative non forest land available for this purpose. Due to proposed approach road, the issue of transportation would be solved which will speed up the industrial production and increase the level of business of our company, which will raise our annual income. However, it would help to achieve the 3 National Productivity. We are aware of the fact, that such forest land have comes under purview of the provisions of the Forest (Conservation) Act 1980, making it incumbent on the State Government to obtain prior approval of the central Government under the provision of the said Act. Hence this proposal is submitted for necessary approval. Map showing the Essential map attached on page No. ------ required forest land, boundary of adjoining forest on a 1:50000 scale map.
