* **Core Objective(s):** The core objective is to acquire land for "building wideningfourlaning, etc., maintenance, management and operation" of NH 302. This aims to improve infrastructure, connectivity, and transportation efficiency.
**4. Background and Rationale:**

Objections were received, considered, and disallowed by the competent authority, leading to the government's final decision to acquire the specified land.
**5. Key Provisions / Changes:**
This notification pertains to the execution of land acquisition, meaning that previous notifications regarding the intent to acquire were made. The key changes involve the following:
* **Original Policy Affected:** The notification refers to the National Highway Act, 1956 and previous notifications issued under sub section 1 of section 3A of the Act. This notification serves to implement those intentions through the use of subsection 1 of section 3D of the act.
* **New Rule/Provision:** The notification declares that the land specified in the schedule "should be acquired for the aforesaid purpose". Crucially, it also declares that upon publication in the Official Gazette, the land "shall vest absolutely in the Central Government, free from all encumbrances."

* **Landowners:** Specifically, those whose land falls within the specified stretch of NH 302 between Km 39.246 and Km 57.641 in the Lunglei district of Mizoram. The notification includes a schedule listing individual landowners and the area of land to be acquired. Names include Rohmingliana co J. Doliana, Hrangthantluanga, PC.

The date of notification (August 18, 2021) marks the beginning of the vesting process. The schedule provides detailed survey numbers and land areas.
**8. Expected Outcomes / Impact of Changes:**
The primary intended outcome of this acquisition is to facilitate the construction, widening, and improvement of NH 302. This will likely improve connectivity, reduce travel time, and boost economic activity in the region. A negative impact will be the displacement of affected landowners and the loss of their land, although the Act likely provides for compensation.
**9. Conclusion:**
The notification represents a crucial step in the development of NH 302.
