The Ministry of Road Transport and
Highways (MoRTH) plans to appoint a non-technical consultant to expedite
highway construction by addressing land acquisition issues.
The
objective is to streamline the awarding and construction processes for highways
by improving land acquisition procedures, which frequently cause delays.
The consultant will provide advice on
policy matters, land acquisition, public grievances, and legal cases.
Responsibilities will include monitoring projects, coordinating land
acquisition activities, managing the Bhoomi Rashi and other related portals, and
performing additional tasks as directed by the ministry.
