Chandigarh Administration Approves Moderated Amendments to Master Plan 2031
The Chandigarh Administration approved amendments to the Master Plan 2031, following a Screening Committee's report that moderated earlier proposals. Key changes include no alterations in Phase I (Sectors 1-30), permission for stilt parking in government flats in Phase II, and an increased floor area ratio (FAR) of 2 for industrial buildings regardless of plot size. The amendments aim to balance development needs with preserving Chandigarh's heritage and original planning principles, with some proposals made conditional pending further studies.
