Punjab High Court Reviews GMADA Fund Use and Stays Mohali Land Acquisition
The Punjab and Haryana High Court has questioned the Punjab Government over the handling of Rs 6,400 crore from the Greater Mohali Area Development Authority, with the Accountant-General flagging serious accounting concerns about its use for general budget deficits. Separately, the court stayed land acquisition for a green industrial park in Mohali, citing potential violations of laws protecting irrigated multi-cropped land and food security safeguards. Hearings on both matters are ongoing, reflecting judicial scrutiny of state financial and land acquisition practices.
