The Punjab and Haryana High Court has dismissed a public interest litigation (PIL) that challenged the Greater Mohali Development Authority's (GMADA) plan to raise ₹2,500 crore from various urban development agencies in Punjab. The PIL, filed by the Public Action Committee (PAC) and six individuals, sought to quash an April 1 communication from the Punjab Urban Planning and Development Authority (PUDA) that directed development authorities to provide loans to GMADA. The funds will be used for ongoing infrastructure projects, including the Aerotropolis and Eco City-3 developments. The loan is structured over a period of three years with an interest rate of 7%. The court found that Sections 49 and 51 of the Punjab Regional and Town Planning and Development Act, 1995, empower development authorities to borrow funds from legitimate sources. It ruled that the April 1 communication was issued with the approval of the state government and dismissed the PIL, stating there were no grounds for interference.
