Mohali enhances investor appeal through strategic land inventory management

The Mohali administration is taking proactive steps to enhance investor facilitation by meticulously cataloging its land holdings, including both Panchayat and other department-owned lands.

Aashika Jain, the Deputy Commissioner, underscored the district’s appeal as an investment hub, emphasizing the crucial need for available land for potential investors.

In a recent meeting with ADC (Rural Development) Sonam Chaudhary and District Development and Panchayat Officer Amaninder Paul Singh Chauhan, Jain directed the comprehensive compilation of land inventories. These records will include vital details such as land size, orientation, proximity to the airport, and distance from existing and upcoming national highways.

Mohali encompasses four development blocks—Majri, Mohali, Kharar, and Dera Bassi—alongside 27 villages affiliated with the Rajpura development block in Patiala. Currently, 3,800 acres of land are under lease.

“The focus is on providing land with potential for higher revenue generation compared to current lease rates. Once the land inventory is compiled, our goal is to digitize it, categorizing sites with distinctive colors. This digitized record will serve as a reliable database for future investments,” elaborated DC Jain.
