PMRDA DP faces uncertainty after MSRDC gets construction permissions in 117 Villages
Hindustan TimesThe state government has decided to expedite the Ring Road project and secure the necessary funds for its smooth implementation. However, this decision has sparked concerns as it could potentially derail PMRDA’s draft development plan which now faces uncertainty. Following the transfer of rights to MSRDC in October, the PMRDA may face challenges, as its draft development plan for the Pune metropolitan region covers around 7,000 square kilometres. MSRDC has the experience and expertise to work as a planning authority and is already functioning in this role for some villages along the Pune-Mumbai Expressway.” Ujwal Keskar, a social activist and former member of MPC said, “State government decision of handover rights of sanctioning building construction plan to MSRDC, has stopped development of PMRDA region. All villages are located adjacent to Ring roads and Pune and Pimpari Chinchwad Municipal Corporation limits.” Civic activist Sudhir Kulkarni said, “The purpose of PMRDA has become meaningless due to the delay in its draft development plan and the state government appointing MSRDC as the town planning authority for 117 villages.”
