The potentially marketable land so identified was valued at both official rates and estimated market rates. The value of potentially marketable excess land is significant -- in per capita terms, the high-value scenario substantially exceeds the estimate of total infrastructure investment needs for the next 20 years prepared by an expert committee of the Ministry of Urban Development of the Government of India. 2014-02-04T19:30:05Z 2014-02-04T19:30:05Z 2013-10 http://documents.worldbank.org/curated/en/2013/10/18412484/inventory-public-land-ahmedabad-gujarat-india http://hdl.handle.net/10986/16878 English en_US Policy Research Working Paper;No. 6664 CC BY 3.0 IGO http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0/igo/ World Bank World Bank, Washington, DC Publications & Research :: Policy Research Working Paper Publications & Research South Asia India
