What the approval does
G.O. Ms. No.49 dated 25 February 2011, issued by the Housing and Urban Development (UD 4-2) Department, approves the draft modified master plan submitted for the Vellore Local Planning Area. The Governor of Tamil Nadu granted the approval after consultation with the Director of Town and Country Planning.
The government directed that notification of the approval be published in the Tamil Nadu Government Gazette. The Director of Town and Country Planning was also asked to ensure republication in the prescribed manner.
