(1) At any time
after a Plan has come into operation according to provisions of
section 161, the Municipality may, with the prior approval of the
State Government, make any modification to the Plan as it thinks fit, the modifications, which in its opinion, do not affect material
alterations in the character of the Plan and which do not relate to
the extent of land uses or the standards of population density.
(2) Before making any modification to the Plan, the
Municipality shall publish a notice, inviting objections before such
date as may be specified in the notice and shall consider all
objections and suggestions that may be received by the
Municipality.
(3) Every modification made under the provisions of this
section shall be published and the modification shall come into
operation either on the date of publication or on such date as the
Municipality may fix by notice published in the Official Gazette
whereupon the modified Plan shall come into operation to all
intents and for all purposes of this Act.
(4) Upon coming into operation of any modified Plan, any
reference in any other section, except in the foregoing sections of
this Chapter, to the Master Development Plan or any other plan,
shall be construed as a reference to the Master Development Plan
or, as the case may be other plan, as modified under the provisions
of this section.
(5) No modification of the Plan shall be made under this
section until and unless it is finally approved by the State
Government.
