When your village enters a master plan areaजब आपका गाँव मास्टर प्लान में आ जाए

AgriZameen is an independent private platform. It is not a government body and is not affiliated with any development authority. This page explains how the rules work. It cannot tell you whether a particular field is inside a particular boundary. AgriZameen एक स्वतंत्र निजी प्लेटफ़ॉर्म है — किसी विकास प्राधिकरण से संबद्ध नहीं। यह पन्ना नियम समझाता है; आपका खेत किस सीमा में है, यह नहीं बता सकता।

A village can be farmland one year and inside a development authority's area the next, without anything changing on the ground. What changes is who decides what may be built there, and what you have to do before you build it.

What actually changes

Inside a development authority area, agricultural land does not automatically become buildable. It becomes land that can be converted, through that authority rather than through the revenue department alone. Three things follow.

90-A — conversion for a layout

Section 90-A of the Rajasthan Land Revenue Act is the route by which agricultural land inside an urban area is converted for residential, commercial or institutional use. It is an application to the authority, decided against the master plan's land-use for that pocket. Land use in the plan decides the answer — an application for residential use on a pocket zoned agricultural or green will not succeed because the land happens to be well located.

90-A वह रास्ता है जिससे शहरी क्षेत्र में कृषि भूमि आवासीय या व्यावसायिक उपयोग के लिए परिवर्तित होती है। जवाब मास्टर प्लान में तय भू-उपयोग से आता है, ज़मीन की जगह से नहीं।

90-B — regularising a layout that already exists

90-B deals with land already sub-divided or built on without approval. It is a regularisation route, not a conversion route, and it carries its own charges and conditions. A plot sold to you as "90-B done" and a plot sold as "90-A done" are not the same thing and do not carry the same history.

90-B पहले से हो चुके अनधिकृत विभाजन या निर्माण को नियमित करने का रास्ता है — परिवर्तन का नहीं। “90-B हो चुका है” और “90-A हो चुका है” एक बात नहीं है।

Who your patta comes from changes

Outside the authority area, a Nagar Palika or panchayat patta may be the relevant document. Inside it, the authority's approval governs a layout. This is why the patta type on a plot has to be read against the use being sold to you — see “Near by” is not an allotment.

What is actually published about Jaipur's next plan

JDA's own portal confirms a Master Development Plan 2047 is being prepared, for a projected population of 1.5 crore. The verifiable proposal is an extension of roughly 1,000 sq km, taking JDA's area from about 5,000 to 6,000 sq km and bringing in 272 villages from Jaipur Rural and Dudu — including 40 villages from the Dudu and Phagi tehsils — and extending beyond the municipal corporations for the first time to the Shahpura, Chaksu and Jobner municipalities.

You will also see a figure of 679 villages quoted. We could not verify it. The only source we found was a property blog, and we are not going to repeat a number about people's land because it appeared on a website.

We have not built a checker, and this is why. Telling you that your village is inside a master plan area is an official determination: it decides whether you need 90-A, what your land may be used for, and what it is worth to a builder. The boundary also moves as the plan is revised and notified. We hold the published counts — 272 villages, 40 from Dudu and Phagi — but not the notified list of names, and a checker built on a partial list would confidently give wrong answers to the people it got wrong. हमने कोई चेकर नहीं बनाया। आपका गाँव मास्टर प्लान में है या नहीं — यह सरकारी निर्णय है। हमारे पास प्रकाशित संख्या है, गाँवों की अधिसूचित सूची नहीं। अधूरी सूची पर बना चेकर कुछ लोगों को पूरे विश्वास से ग़लत जवाब देगा।

How to check your own position

Start with the tehsil, not the map. Ask at the Tehsil office whether your village falls inside the current JDA area, and under which notification. A notification has a number and a date; a map on a website does not.
Ask JDA for the land use of your pocket, not just whether the village is included. Two fields in the same village can be zoned differently, and the zoning is what 90-A is decided against.
Get it in writing. A verbal answer at a counter cannot be shown to a buyer, a bank or a court.
Check the date on everything. A plan under preparation is not a plan in force, and a proposal reported in the press is neither.
If a seller says conversion is "in process", ask which section, which application number, and which date. Those three things either exist or they do not.

Where each corridor and project in this belt has actually reached is set out, with sources and dates, in the Belt Project Register.

Independent platform — not a government body, not affiliated with any development authority. Nothing here is legal advice or a statement about any particular parcel, and nothing here says any land will rise or fall in value. Rules and boundaries change; check the current position with JDA and your Tehsil office before you act.
