* **Procedures:** HPCL is required to handle all compensation claims under Section 10 of the PMP Act, 1962.
**8. Expected Outcomes / Impact of Changes:**
* The primary intended outcome is the successful laying of the LPG pipeline from Hassan to Cherlapalli.
* The vesting of the Right of User in HPCL is intended to streamline the project by giving HPCL direct control over the land use for the pipeline.
* The specific outcome is for HPCL to be able to utilise the land in the defined region, Survey No. 306 in Venkatapura, Srirangapur Mandal, Wanaparthy District, Telangana for laying the LPG pipeline.
**9. Conclusion:**
