City And Industrial Development Corporation Of Maharashtra Ltd (CIDCO) on Tuesday said that under its 12.5 per cent land allotment scheme, 319 eligible beneficiaries from the Dronagiri node were handed over intent letters (Irada Patras) for plots at an event held in the presence of Maharashtra Deputy Chief Minister Eknath Shinde.

An official statement said that the decision to conduct the land allotment draw was taken in a CIDCO board meeting held on June 11, 2025. It marks a historic moment, as the last allotment in Dronagiri for project-affected persons (PAPs) was done back in 2007.

During the event, CIDCO Vice Chairman and Managing Director Vijay Singhal and other senior state officials were present apart from many of the beneficiaries of the scheme.
