In Mohali's Aerotropolis development, land has been subdivided, prompting a split of farmers' rights over the parcels.
Mohali, Punjab – Officials overseeing the Aerotropolis project have reported that the land earmarked for the development has been divided into separate parcels. The subdivision is expected to affect the legal rights of the farmers who own or cultivate the land.
The Aerotropolis, a planned mixed‑use zone near the city’s airport, is intended to attract commercial and residential investment. As the plot boundaries are redefined, each segment will be associated with distinct ownership claims.
Consequently, the rights of the farming community attached to these parcels will also be apportioned, meaning that each farmer will hold a share corresponding to the newly demarcated land. Authorities have indicated that the process will follow existing land‑record procedures, though detailed timelines have not been disclosed.
No further information on compensation, rehabilitation or future land‑use plans has been released at this stage.
