This query is : Resolved
I am an Advocate for a company that Manufactures Wind Mills in Tamilnadu. I want to know, is there a Govt Order/Court Ruling of some sort for Conversion of Land ( Agri to non Agri) which says that the land need not be converted to Non Agricultural purpose in order to erect a wind mill. If so Please advice me on This regard and also the land Laws and its impact on erecting a wind mill and also the classification that on which sector the Wind Mill falls into. Please
