Fate of development in merged PMC areas uncertain as State cancels PMRDA’s DP
In a major decision, the Maharashtra state government has scrapped the Draft Development Plan prepared by the Pune Metropolitan Region Development Authority, affecting merged villages spanning over 6,000 square meters. PMRDA metropolitan commissioner Yogesh Mhase confirmed the decision, stating, “The state government has scrapped PMRDA’s DP and recently conveyed this to us. Now that the draft plan has been scrapped, we are awaiting further instructions from the state government on how to proceed.” A senior PMC official, speaking on condition of anonymity, emphasized the impact of the decision, saying, “Without a Development Plan, acquiring land for public amenities like roads, gardens, hospitals, and playgrounds becomes extremely difficult. Now, we will meet Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis to request that PMC be allowed to draft the DP for these areas.” With the DP now scrapped, the fate of development in these merged villages remains uncertain, leaving residents and planners in a state of limbo.
