BJP Government chief minister [[Manohar Lal Khattar]] announced a new city adjoining Gurugram in June 2018. In this, the area from Manesar towards Rewari and the area around Pataudi will be incorporated. The new city is likely to be spread across at least 50,000 hectares, which is larger than Chandigarh (11,400 hectares) but smaller than Gurugram (73,200 hectares). The city will come up in PPP mode. The other aspects of developing the city in a planned manner will be prepared by the consultant in the detailed master plan." The proposed city will be well connected to neighbouring urban centres through national and state highways, the Kundli-Manesar-Palwal (KMP) Expressway and other major districts roads. The consultant is also expected to suggest the road network plan, metro rail plan, required rail and road linkages and public transportation for the proposed city and assess the proposed social, economic and physical infrastructure.<ref>{{Cite web|date=2018-06-23|title=Larger than Chandigarh, new city will rise next to Gurgaon|url=https://indianexpress.com/article/india/larger-than-chandigarh-new-city-will-rise-next-to-gurgaon-5229711/|access-date=2021-05-16|website=The Indian Express|language=en}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web|title=Five new cities to be developed along the Kundli-Manesar-Palwal Expressway|url=https://www.newindianexpress.com/nation/2018/jun/29/five-new-cities-to-be-developed-along-the-kundli-manesar-palwal-expressway-1835666.html|access-date=2021-05-16|website=The New Indian Express|date=29 June 2018 }}</ref><ref>{{Cite web|date=2018-06-23|title=Haryana government plans new city larger than Chandigarh next to Gurgaon|url=https://www.financialexpress.com/india-news/haryana-government-plans-new-city-larger-than-chandigarh-next-to-gurgaon/1217133/|access-date=2021-05-16|website=The Financial Express|language=en-US}}</ref>
Pataudi Road is proposed to be widened to 135 meters. The sectors roads too would be atleat 60 meters wide.<ref name="hindustantimes1"/> Land Acquisition for creation of Residential Sectors ( Sector-1 Part-1 Pataudi )

The Gurgaon Urban Estates Department had on December 31, 2013, issued notifications under Section 4 of the Land Acquisition Act, 1894, to acquire land for a proposed university in Sector 68, Gurgaon (660 acre), Sector-1 Part-I, Pataudi (379 acre), Sector-1, [[Farrukhnagar]] (448.75 acre) and for public utilities from Sector 68 to 74 and Sector 99 to 115 (138.93 acre) and several acres for sector roads. Around 300 land owners were sent notices under Section 4 of the law expressing the intent to take over the land by the [[Bhupinder Singh Hooda]] government under this law, just a day before the new land acquisition act came into force.

The New [[Bharatiya Janata Party]] government headed by [[Manohar Lal Khattar]] decided to go ahead with the process. The 363 acres of land are spread across four villages.

Surely the farmers are opposing the acquisition process and registered the same with the Chief Minister. However, the acquisition process has the backing of [[Gurgaon]] MP and a minister in [[Narendra Modi]] government, [[Rao Inderjit Singh]] who said "The acquisition will not be withdrawn as the process has already started. The state will develop residential sectors in this area. As far as the issue of Section 4 notices on the last day is concerned, it was legally tenable. There was nothing wrong."

Noticeable is the fact that The previous Hooda led Congress government initiated land acquisition under a law which was due to be replaced the very next day. Land owners got notices dated December 31, 2013 whereas the Land Acquisition, Rehabilitation and Resettlement Act, 2013 came into effect on January 1, 2014.

The new law, the land owners said, will make them eligible for compensation of around Rs 2 crore per acre and 20% of the developed land. On the other hand, the British-era law granted nearly half of the compensation and no rights in developed land whatsoever. So basically, land owners are not outright against land acquisition --- they are ready to part with their land, albeit at a higher price.

The Administrator of [[Haryana Urban Development Authority]] [[Gurgaon]] P.C. Meena, however, said that the rights of the land owners and farmers will be protected even if the notifications for land acquisition were issued under the old law and they would be given compensation at the enhanced rates as per the provisions of the new law.

[[Northern Peripheral Road]] NH 248-BB commonly known as [[Dwarka Expressway]] has been constructed. Pataudi Road [[National Highway 352W (India)|NH 352W]] connects Pataudi town to this Dwarka Expressway. The old alignment of Pataudi Road continues from Dwarka Expressway to Gurgaon city as a city road.


A new link road has been made by HUDA connecting [[Manesar]] with Patuadi road near [[Wazirpur]] village.

[[Northern Peripheral Road]] commonly known as [[Dwarka Expressway]] road is being developed under the public private partnership (PPP) model. This stretch will connect [[Dwarka]] with [[National Highway 8]] at [[Kherki Dhaula]] and will pass [[Pataudi Road]]. The NPR stretch has been planned as an alternate link road between [[Delhi]] and [[Gurgaon]], and is expected to ease the traffic situation on the [[Delhi Gurgaon Expressway]]. The road will also provide connectivity to the much-touted [[Reliance Anil Dhirubhai Ambani Group|Reliance]]-HSIIDC SEZ besides the [[Garhi Harsaru]] dry depot.<ref>{{cite news|url=http://articles.timesofindia.indiatimes.com/2011-02-17/gurgaon/28553935_1_tenders-stretch-delhi-gurgaon-expressway |title=HUDA floats tender for Northern Peripheral Road |publisher=The Times of India |date=2011-02-17 |accessdate=2012-01-28}}</ref>

Much like [[Delhi]], [[Gurgaon]] too will have a BRT corridor to decongest traffic on the Northern Peripheral Road. In several sections, the NPR will have provisions for the [[Bus Rapid Transit]] (BRT) corridor to ensure smooth flow of traffic. The road will be fully developed in March 2012.<ref>{{cite news|url=http://articles.timesofindia.indiatimes.com/2011-02-18/gurgaon/28614870_1_foot-overbridges-brt-corridor-npr-project |title=HUDA plans BRT corridor on upcoming NPR project |publisher=The Times of India |date=2011-02-18 |accessdate=2012-01-28}}</ref>

Connectivity to Pataudi road is extremely in bad shape. Also, one cannot take a right turn from the [[Hero Honda]] Chowk, as the highways does not have a cut over here.

Gurgaon-Pataudi road, known as Pataudi Road, was a state highway, SH 26, and is being converted to a national highway, NH 352W, in 2023 as an alternative parallel highway to NH 48, the Delhi-Jaipur highway to reduce the congestion on NH 48. The road has been included as the new growth corridors in Gurugram.[1][2]

History

[edit]

The small princely state Pataudi State was formed in 1804 by East India Company with 40 villages including Pataudi village (as it was then) as reward to Faiz Talab Khan a Pashtun of the Barech tribe for aiding the Company against the Maratha Empire during the Second Anglo-Maratha War and the English made Faiz Talab Khan Nawab of Pataudi.[3][4] It was subsumed into Union of India in 1947.

Mansoor Ali Khan son of the former nawab was former captain of India cricket team. His residence was converted into a hotel but bought back by his actor son later.[5] Nearby Akbar Manzil, built after 1857 as the official residence of the then Nawab, was later converted into a kachehri (judicial complex), and is now used as a godown (store).[6]

Several residential units coming up on the Pataudi Road, the logistics park, Special Economic Zones (SEZs) by Reliance, Raheja Engineering SEZ[13] and a commercial sector.

A draft development plan for Pataudi town is being prepared. It is expected to have about 4–5 sectors.[14]

New City in Pataudi

[edit]

BJP Government chief minister Manohar Lal Khattar announced a new city adjoining Gurugram in June 2018. In this, the area from Manesar towards Rewari and the area around Pataudi will be incorporated. The new city is likely to be spread across at least 50,000 hectares, which is larger than Chandigarh (11,400 hectares) but smaller than Gurugram (73,200 hectares). The city will come up in PPP mode. The other aspects of developing the city in a planned manner will be prepared by the consultant in the detailed master plan." The proposed city will be well connected to neighbouring urban centres through national and state highways, the Kundli-Manesar-Palwal (KMP) Expressway and other major districts roads. The consultant is also expected to suggest the road network plan, metro rail plan, required rail and road linkages and public transportation for the proposed city and assess the proposed social, economic and physical infrastructure.[15][16][17]
