Question 1

What is the Ayodhya Ring Road land corridor and which districts does it cover?

Accepted Answer

The Ayodhya Ring Road is a 67.57 km NHAI bypass divided into a 35.40 km Northern Package and a 32.172 km Southern Package. Together they form a ring around Ayodhya and Faizabad, connecting districts of Lucknow, Basti, and Gonda through NH-27, NH-330, NH-330A, and NH-135A.

Question 2

When did construction of the Ayodhya Ring Road start and when will it be completed?

Accepted Answer

The appointed date for the Northern Ayodhya Bypass was confirmed by NHAI on July 1, 2025, with construction commencing July 9, 2025. With a 2.5-year construction deadline under the HAM (Hybrid Annuity Mode) model, completion is targeted around early 2028, pending any land or clearance delays.

Question 3

How much land is being acquired and what is the compensation amount?

Accepted Answer

NHAI is acquiring 392 hectares at a total land acquisition cost of Rs 690 crore across Ayodhya, Gonda, and Basti districts. Buyers must check khasra numbers against the acquisition schedule for both Package 1 and Package 2 before transacting in any village along the alignment.

Question 4

Is land near Majha Jamthara in Ayodhya safe to buy?

Accepted Answer

No, not without rigorous verification. A Scroll.in investigation documented that a National Green Tribunal committee identified Majha Jamthara land between Faizabad and the Saryu river as state government land. Private sale transactions in this area carry serious title validity risk; verify revenue and NGT records first. Use 1acre's Premium map layer (https://1acre.in/subscribe) to overlay the acquisition boundary and check your khasra number against the NHAI Package 1 and 2 schedule before any transaction.

Question 5

What is the ADA Master Plan 2031 and how does it affect land near the ring road?

Accepted Answer

The Ayodhya Development Authority expanded its planning area to 873 sq km in 2025, adding 343 villages from Basti and Gonda. Land in these newly added villages is now under ADA regulation, but most parcels have no sanctioned layout. Agricultural land sold as ADA area plots in these villages cannot be developed without formal zone conversion approval.

Question 6

Which contractor is building the Ayodhya Ring Road?

Accepted Answer

Ceigall India Ltd (CIL) was declared the lowest bidder for both the Northern and Southern Bypass packages by NHAI in September 2024. CIL has signed the contract agreement and officially commenced construction on both packages.

Question 7

What is the projected traffic volume on the Ayodhya bypass and why does it matter for land?

Accepted Answer

NHAI projects daily traffic through the bypass influence areas to grow from 89,023 vehicles in 2023 to 216,928 by 2033. That freight growth drives warehousing and logistics demand near NH-27 interchange zones before any residential demand, which should guide how buyers near the Gonda Basti NH-330A corridor time their hold period.
