Goa's TCP department will now issue zoning certificates for land converted under Calangute-Candolim and Arpora-Nagoa-Parra ODPs, provided it's designated as 'Settlement' in Regional Plan 2021. This follows a Supreme Court decision upholding a High Court ruling that set aside the ODPs, emphasizing the need to prevent Goa from becoming a 'concrete jungle'.
