The move will allow residents to use their land for various purposes while adhering to legal formalities. 

However, if the land is sold, the remaining 90% premium must be paid by the seller. The decision is expected to ease land-related issues and provide clarity for property owners in the city. 

In another financial decision, the Cabinet approved a fund of Rs 223.26 crore for microfinance beneficiaries. A total of 78,046 people will benefit from this initiative, providing much-needed financial relief to economically weaker sections.
