High Court Approves Mahalunge-Maan Town Planning Scheme, Boosting Development Prospects

04 Aug 2023

In a pivotal ruling, the High Court has upheld the validity of the Mahalunge-Maan Town Planning Scheme, a groundbreaking initiative introduced by the Pune Metropolitan Region Development Authority (PMRDA) in 2017. The scheme, spanning over 250.50 hectares, aims to streamline and bolster development activities within the Mahalunge-Maan region. The court's decision, announced on August 2, 2023, marks a significant milestone, dismissing a petition filed by 55 landowners who sought compensation for land acquisition under the 2013 Act and raised concerns against the scheme. The court clarified that while the scheme remains in force, any land possession within its ambit requires explicit court approval.

The verdict paves the way for accelerated development in the area, as the High Court's dismissal of the petition underscores the scheme's legality and strategic importance. This outcome sets the stage for a more harmonious collaboration between landowners and the PMRDA, facilitating efficient plot-wise demarcation and on-site stone plantation for the seamless implementation of the town planning scheme. The ruling is anticipated to invigorate the pace of development in Mahalunge-Maan, yielding benefits for both the local residents and the broader progress of the region. As stakeholders gear up to embark on this transformative journey, the region braces itself for a new era of growth and advancement.
