These 5 Presses will be redeveloped and modernised by monetisation of their surplus land.
Land measuring 468.08 acres of the other merged Presses will be given to Land & Development Office, Ministry of Urban Development.
Land measuring 56.67 acres of the Government of India Text Books Presses (GITBPs) at Chandigarh, Bhubaneswar and Mysuru will be returned to the respective State Governments.
Modernisation of the Presses will enable them to undertake important confidential, urgent and multi-colour printing work of the Central Government Offices all over the country.
This will be carried out at zero cost to the exchequer and without any retrenchment.
