Baden Powell defined Nazul property as “Property escheated or lapsed to the State; commonly applied to any land or house property belonging to Government either as an escheat or as having belonged to former Governments.”
The State Government may, by notification in the Gazette and upon such terms and conditions as may be agreed upon between that Government and the Authority, place at the disposal of the Authority all or any developed and undeveloped lands in the development area vested in the State (known as “Nazul lands”), for the purpose of development in accordance with the provisions of the Act.
Once any such land has been placed at the disposal of the Authority, no development of any such land shall be undertaken or carried out except by or under the control and supervision of the Authority.
After any such Nazul land has been developed by or under the control and supervision of the Authority, it will be dealt with by the Authority in accordance with the directions given by the State Government in that behalf.
If any nazul land placed at the disposal of the Authority is required at any time thereafter by the State Government, the Authority shall, by notification by the Gazette, replace it at the disposal of that Government upon such terms and conditions as may be agreed upon between that Government and the Authority.
