The recent decision by the Prayagraj Development Authority (PDA) to remove the need for building plan approvals on small residential plots is a positive move. For plots measuring up to 300 square meters, this step will save time and make construction easier for many middle-class families.
This change will help people who want to build their own homes without facing long delays or too many rules. It supports the dream of many to have a house of their own. It also shows that the PDA is working to make the process simple and more user-friendly.
By trusting citizens to follow basic building rules on small plots, the government is showing faith in the people. This can also speed up development and give a boost to housing in the city.
Such thoughtful changes should continue, as they help make cities better and more livable for all.
