This was initially announced via notification S.O. 1450 E, dated March 26, 2021, published in the Gazette of India on April 6, 2021, under subsection 1 of section 20A of the Railways Act, 1989.

* **Report Submission:** The competent authority submitted a report to the Central Government, as per subsection 1 of section 20E of the Railways Act, 1989.
* **Final Declaration:** Upon receiving the report, the Central Government declared that the lands specified in the schedule would be acquired for the EDFC project, exercising powers under subsection 1 of section 20E of the Railways Act, 1989.
* **Land Vesting:** Upon publication of the notification in the official Gazette, the land specified in the schedule will vest absolutely in the Central Government, free from all encumbrances, as per subsection 2 of section 20E of the Railways Act, 1989.
* **Land Schedule:** A schedule is annexed to the notification, detailing specific land parcels to be acquired. This includes the district, taluk, village, type and nature of land, Khasra number, area in hectares, and names of land owners/interested persons. For example, land in Murshadpur village is being acquired from Shameem Urf Kale Khan.
**6. Target Audience and Stakeholders:**
