Analysed 14 Jun 2026·2 sources analysed·Mohali, India·Politics
Punjab and Haryana High Court Reviews Land Acquisition Process for Mohali Aerotropolis ProjectPreviousNext

The Punjab and Haryana High Court has placed the land acquisition process for the Mohali Aerotropolis Aero City Expansion Project under judicial review, staying the passing of final compensation awards to certain affected landowners. Petitioners challenged acquisition notifications from December 2025 and March 2026, citing the absence of a mandatory Social Impact Assessment and unaddressed objections under the 2013 Land Acquisition Act. The court will hear the matter alongside a related petition on October 1, extending interim protections to the petitioners.
