Synopsis

PUDA has cancelled CLU permission for 1.21 acres within a 56.53 acre industrial park in Mohali after ownership disputes were raised. The original CLU approvals were issued in 2018 and 2019 under the Industrial Park Policy. The contested area includes numerous industrial plots, 88 SCO sites, parking areas, shops, toilet blocks, and a water?works plot. Following official hearings, authorities confirmed the land belongs to the complainant. The developer must submit a revised layout reflecting actual ownership, which requires fresh approval and public notification.

The Punjab Urban Development Authority (PUDA) has revoked the Change of Land Use (CLU) permission for 1.21 acres of land allotted to a private developer for an industrial park in Mohali. This portion is part of a larger 56.53?acre project spread across the villages of Drari and Dhurali. The original CLU approvals had been granted in two phases 51.4 acres in 2018 and 5.13 acres in 2019 under the Industrial Park Policy, covering the full layout plan.


The decision followed a complaint questioning the ownership of part of the land included in the CLU. After thorough hearings involving both the complainant and the developer, authorities concluded that the 1.21 acres, equivalent to 9 kanal 15 marla, belongs to the complainant and not the developer.

The affected land includes industrial plots numbered 1 to 8, 12 to 16, 19 to 111 in full, and parts of plots 11 and 18. Additionally, all 88 Shop?cum?Office (SCO) sites in Pocket?1 of the project, along with their associated parking areas, toilet blocks, six bay shops, and a plot reserved for water works, are included in the disputed area.

Since the land was part of a joint ownership record (mushtarka khata), PUDA has instructed the developer to submit a revised layout plan reflecting only the land they legitimately own, excluding the cancelled portion. This revised plan must receive approval from the competent authority, and a fresh public notice will be issued before any further development activities can take place.

The revocation also highlights the importance of confirming land ownership before planning large industrial projects. Ensuring clear ownership is critical to prevent legal and regulatory issues that could delay projects or require layout revisions.
