The townships would have self-reliant units like infrastructure, education, health, information technology, bio-technology, out souring and banking. Under the policy, a private developer is required to develop a township, of international standards, on minimum 1,500 acre of land with an investment of Rs750 crore. In the wake of increasing housing demand, specially high class societies, in the big cities, the previous Mulayam Singh led government formulated a hi-tech township policy in 2003. Non-NCR towns identified by the government are Lucknow, Allahabad and Saharanpur, the officer said. NCR towns, where the new townships would be developed, include Khurja and Bulandshahar. The officer said that the decision to develop five more townships was taken during a high-level meeting chaired by the state chief secretary. The state government had already released licences for development of 10 hi-tech townships in seven cities across the state, the official said, adding that work on some had already started.
