Publication of notification in the Extra Ordinary Gazette of India under Section 6(1) of the PMP Act 1962 relating to land schedule in respect of Hassan Cherlapalli LPG Pipeline Project to be laid by Hindustan Petroleum Corporation Limited (HPCL) for acquisition of ROU in the State of Karnataka Taluka Arsikere District Hassan, S.O No 3709 (E) dated 10.10.2019
## Policy Analysis Report: Acquisition of Right of User for Petroleum Pipeline (Hassan to Cherlapalli)
**1. Executive Summary:**
This report analyzes a notification from the Ministry of Petroleum and Natural Gas, Government of India, regarding the acquisition of the right of user (RoU) in land for the laying of a petroleum product pipeline from Hassan, Karnataka, to Cherlapalli, Telangana, by Hindustan Petroleum Corporation Limited (HPCL). The notification declares the Central Government's acquisition of RoU for the pipeline project and specifies that this right vests in HPCL. HPCL is solely responsible for compensation related to the acquired land. The report details the specific areas affected and the legal basis for the acquisition.
**2. Introduction:**
This report aims to provide a comprehensive overview of a notification published by the Ministry of Petroleum and Natural Gas concerning the acquisition of the right of user in land for the construction of a petroleum pipeline by Hindustan Petroleum Corporation Limited (HPCL). The analysis is based solely on the text of the provided notification.
**3. Policy Overview:**
* This is a new policy action regarding specific land use rights acquisition.
* **Core Objective:** The core objective of this notification is to acquire the right of user in specific land parcels for the purpose of laying a petroleum product pipeline from Hassan, Karnataka, to Cherlapalli, Telangana, by HPCL.
**4. Background and Rationale:**
This policy addresses the need for a petroleum product pipeline between Hassan and Cherlapalli. The notification references previous notifications (S.O. No. 3709 E dated the 10th October, 2019, and S.O. No. 91E dated the 2nd January 2020) declaring the Central Government's intention to acquire the right of user in the land. This indicates a process that began earlier, with this notification representing the final acquisition of the right. The underlying problem is the lack of pipeline infrastructure to efficiently transport petroleum products between these two locations.
**5. Key Provisions / Changes:**
* The Central Government declares the acquisition of the right of user in the land specified in the Schedule appended to the notification.
* This right of user, instead of vesting in the Central Government, vests in Hindustan Petroleum Corporation Limited (HPCL) from the date of publication of the notification, free from all encumbrances.
* Hindustan Petroleum Corporation Limited (HPCL) is exclusively liable for any compensation under Section 10 of the Petroleum and Minerals Pipelines (Acquisition of Right of User in Land) Act, 1962 (PMP Act, 1962).
* According to Section 13, no suit or other legal proceeding can be brought against the Central Government, Competent Authority, any State Government, or Corporation for any matter relating to the pipeline.
* The Schedule provides a list of specific land parcels in the Arsikere Taluka of Hassan District in Karnataka, specifying the village, survey number, and area (in Acres and Guntas) affected.
**6. Target Audience and Stakeholders:**
The primary target audience and stakeholders are:
* **Landowners** in the specified villages of Mahadevarahalli, Borehalli, B Kammaragatta, Bisalehalli, Belagumba, Mailanahalli, and Haralakatta in the Arsikere Taluka of Hassan District, Karnataka, whose land is subject to the right of user acquisition.
* **Hindustan Petroleum Corporation Limited (HPCL)**, who are responsible for laying the pipeline and providing compensation.
* **The Central Government** (Ministry of Petroleum and Natural Gas), who are responsible for issuing the notification and overseeing the acquisition process.
**7. Implementation Aspects (Inferred):**
* **Responsible Agency/Bodies:** The Ministry of Petroleum and Natural Gas, the Central Government, and Hindustan Petroleum Corporation Limited (HPCL) are the responsible bodies. A "competent authority" is mentioned, likely responsible for assessing and reporting on the land acquisition process.
* **Timelines/Procedures:** The notification specifies the date of publication as the date on which the right of user vests in HPCL. It references earlier notifications from 2019 and 2020 indicating a multi-stage process. The notification implies that HPCL will follow the compensation process as laid out in Section 10 of the PMP Act, 1962.
**8. Expected Outcomes / Impact of Changes:**
The intended outcomes of this notification are:
* Facilitating the construction of the Hassan-Cherlapalli petroleum product pipeline by granting HPCL the right of user in the necessary land.
* Providing a legal framework for compensating landowners affected by the pipeline construction.
* Enhancing the transportation infrastructure for petroleum products between Karnataka and Telangana.
**9. Conclusion:**
The notification analyzed outlines the Central Government's decision to acquire the right of user in land for the Hassan-Cherlapalli petroleum pipeline project and vests this right in HPCL. This action is a significant step towards improving petroleum product transportation infrastructure and highlights the government's role in facilitating such projects while ensuring fair compensation for affected landowners.
