Permission for building a house on agricultural land for own use to do farming
I am the owner of approximately 2 acres (9150 sq yards) of agricultural land in Village Khori Jamalpur, sub Tehsil Dhauj, District Faridabad, Haryana where I am doing organic farming. I wish to build a small house on the land for my own stay to supervise farming. How can I build a small 2 room house of 1200 sq feet on it for my living, and do I need permission to do so? Do I have to first get CLU done for building a house on this agricultural land? If CLU needs to be done, is the charge applicable only for the area on which the house will be built or do CLU charges apply to the whole land area. If permission is required, whom to contact for the same and what are the charges for getting the permission?

You cannot construct a house on agricultural land to live in, although the land may be owned by you. In case it was originally allotted as agricultural land, its use should have been converted to residential. You can convert agricultural land into residential by paying a fee. .
You can build a house if 1200 sq ft for your own purpose and can have permission from grampanchayat or municipal corporation in which ever area your agricultural land in appearing.
You need to take permission for doing non agricultural activities in agricultural land
The farm building or farm house so erected shall not be more than 10% of one's holding subject to maximum of such extent of land as may be prescribed.
2) The house shall be used by the farmer for his own use and it shall not be let out for commercial activities to any individual or agency.
3) obtain permission from gram panchayat for carrying on construction on the land
You have to obtain CLU for change of agriculture land to residential land to erect house structure.
For CLU you need to get permission from District collector of Faridabad and pay fees according to area of land you want to use for residential purpose
Hi
Since you intend to do farming in the agricultural land, you can apply for residential construction to Department of town and country planning at DTP, Planning Faridabad, Room No. 116, Ground Floor, HSVP Complex, Sec.12, Faridabad and obtain building permission.
Conversion of land use certificate is not required, if you are building a single storied structure in your own land and for own use.
Hope this information is useful.
You can convert agricultural land into residential or industrial land by paying a fee. You can get a 'change of land use' after obtaining the necessary approval from the local authorities. You have to apply to the commissioner of the land revenue department, explaining the purpose of conversion. Along with the application, you need to attach certain documents such as ID proof, mutation letter, original sale deed (or gift partition deed), latest tax paid receipt and certified survey map.
There is a fee to get the land converted, depending on the nature of the property and its location. CLU charges would only be applicable on the the area on which you are constructing the house and not on the entire area.
The district or deputy commissioner, or collector, who is authorised, may permit conversion of land if satisfied that the prescribed conditions have been met and there are no pending dues or litigations on the property. The conversion should also be permissible under the master plan of the area. A conversion order permitting the change in land use will then be issued. Also, a conversion certificate will be issued.
1. You can made upto 1% construction in the total land holding, by submitting house plans and taking proper permission from the Regional Town Planning dept. (Collector office).
2. The house would be required to pay the "house tax" to the local gram panchayat office, which will depend on the "actual" area constructed. Note Gram Panchayat, has no legal jurisdiction to grant any construction permission.
No special permission require to built cottage/storage to look after farming. You can inform the concern dept. about this. Conversion dose not needed for such purpose. Such construction is part of agriculture use.
A Khatedar tenant can convert his agricultural holding for construction of a dwelling house or cattle shed or storehouse on an area not exceeding 500 square meters without any fee payable. The area so converted will continue to be in his khatedari tenant.
No fee will be payable by any department of State Government or a local authority for conversion of agricultural land for any official use.
Well, please follow other learned advocates advice, best of luck.
Agricultural land cannot be used for residential purposes. You cannot construct a house on agricultural land to live in, although the land may be owned by you. You need to get the land use converted from agricultural to residential before any construction.
However a farm house can be constructed for own use without letting it out on rent or for any other commercial purpose.
You have first stated "You cannot construct a house on agricultural land to live in, although the land may be owned by you." In the next line you have stated "However a farm house can be constructed for own use without letting it out on rent or for any other commercial purpose" But my question has always been that I need a place to stay on the farm to be able to supervise the labour to do organic farming and possibly hydroponics. So your contradictory statements have created more confusion. I never said that I will use this house for commercial activities or anything of that sort. Only for my own living. I just don't understand how does the government expect me to supervise the farming on my own land. Surely the government cannot expect me to travel 85 km every day to my farm, sit in the sun the whole time, supervise the labour and in the evening return to my house in Delhi All responses talk about getting CLU done but nobody goes into the details of how it can be done. Apparently, CLU is sanctioned only when the farm has a 12m access road. Where do I get a road like that to come up to my farm? Apparently, due to the The Punjab Scheduled Roads and Controlled Areas Restriction of Unregulated Development Act, 1963, my general area is regulated by this act and so people are saying that no construction is allowed. However, there are houses built on farms all around my farm

construction of houses may be illegal as done without obtain permission
check with local pachayat authorities for constructing farm house on your land
See you can build house with approval of the panchayat as states above.
You can only construct residential house if you convert the same as non agricultural use.
It makes a difference in dwelling house and a farm house.
A farm house can be constructed for the said purposes inside the agricultural land.
