* **Explain the Difference/Effect of this Specific Change:** This declaration initiates the land acquisition process, allowing affected parties to file objections and potentially leading to the transfer of land ownership to the government for the highway project. The affected parties will have to follow the procedure to claim compensation.
**6. Target Audience and Stakeholders:**
The primary target audience and stakeholders are:
* Landowners in the specified stretch of National Highway 361 (Km 505.550 to Km 567.000) in Latur district, Maharashtra, particularly in the villages of Marshivani and Shirur Tajband in Ahmadpur Taluk and Algarwadi in Chakur Taluk.
* Residents and businesses in the region who may be directly or indirectly affected by the highway construction/improvement.

* Deputy Collector, Land Acquisition Officer, Purna Project Latur (Competent Authority).
* **Timelines/Procedures:**
* Affected parties have 21 days from the date of publication of the notification in the Official Gazette to file objections.
* The Competent Authority is responsible for hearing objections, conducting inquiries, and issuing orders to allow or disallow the objections.
* The order of the Competent Authority under subsection 2 of section 3C of the said Act is final.
**8. Expected Outcomes / Impact of Changes:**
The likely intended outcome of this amendment is to facilitate the timely and efficient acquisition of land required for the improvement and expansion of National Highway 361. The amendment should lead to:
* Smooth progress of the highway project.
* Reduced transportation costs and improved connectivity in the region.
* Potential economic benefits due to improved infrastructure.
**9. Conclusion:**
The notification represents a crucial step in the process of land acquisition for the improvement of National Highway 361.
