Mohali Sector 90 Land Swap Approved: Fresh Hope for 700 Plot Allottees

The long pending Mohali Sector 90 project has finally moved forward as the forest department approves the crucial land swap & clearing the way for development. With this decision nearly 700 plot allottees receive renewed hope after years of delays. GMADA can now begin work on residential, commercial, and institutional zones, marking a major milestone in resolving the decade-old issue.  

Fresh Hope for Sector 90 Plot Allottees  

The long-awaited development of Sector 90 in Mohali has finally received a significant boost. The Forest Department has approved a crucial land swap bringing fresh hope to over 700 plot allottees who have been waiting for years for clarity and progress. This approval not only clears legal hurdles but also sets the stage for fast tracked development in the area.  

What the Approval Means for Development  

With the land swap approved the authorities can now move forward with residential and commercial planning without bureaucratic delays. This step allows the construction of homes, roads and essential infrastructure to begin giving allottees a clear path toward possession and investment realization.The authorities have proposed a strategic land swap to facilitate the development of Mohali’s Sector 90. Under this plan 23 acres of designated forest land will be exchanged with equivalent land located in Mattewara village Ludhiana.   

Original Land Allocation Challenges  

Sector 90 has faced delays due to environmental regulations and land use conflicts. The plots were initially allocated several years ago, but the legal and administrative challenges kept progress slow.  

Delays Faced by Plot Allottees  

Many allottees expressed frustration as construction timelines kept extending. The approval from the Forest Department now resolves one of the biggest obstacles in the development process.  

Benefits for Plot Holders and Buyers  

            Fast Tracked Development Plans  

With the green signal in place, developers can resume construction immediately. This move promises faster project completion, reducing waiting time for residents and investors alike.  

E nhanced Infrastructure and Amenities  

The project is expected to include well planned roads, parks, utilities and recreational facilities making Sector 90 a premium residential hub. Buyers can anticipate a modern well connected neighborhood that enhances the overall value of their investment.  

GLADA Approval Paves Way for GMADA Land Exchange  

This development follows the  clearance granted by the Greater Ludhiana Area Development Authority (GLADA) in September to the Greater Mohali Area Development Authority (GMADA) for the exchange of forest land. Following this approval, the proposal was submitted to the  Forest Department for final authorization , which has now been officially granted, paving the way for the Sector 90 development to move forward.  

Forest Restrictions Stall Sector 90 Development for Years  

The project faced a significant setback when the authorities were unable to obtain a  No Objection Certificate (NOC)  from the Forest Department. After six years it was discovered that approximately  23 acres of the acquired land were governed by the Punjab Land Preservation Act (PLPA) 1900 making it ineligible for development without proper environmental clearance. At the time of acquisition the Forest Department had not been aware of this restriction.  

Final Thoughts  

Long Term Impact on Mohali Real Estate  

Sector 90’s development will contribute significantly to Mohali’s urban growth. Improved infrastructure and timely project delivery will attract more residents and investors enhancing the city’s real estate market.  

Why This Is a Game Changer for Residents  

For over 700 plot allottees this approval isn’t just an administrative milestone it’s a chance to finally see their long awaited dreams come true. Mohali Sector 90 is now poised to become a thriving residential hub, offering modern amenities, better connectivity and a brighter future for its residents.
