Understanding Vahivat (Vahiwat) in Indian Land RecordsPCMC to Publish Red-Zone Map Around Defence Establishments — Relief for 4,000 Property Owners Soon
The PCMC is set to release an official “red-zone” map next week, which will clearly demarcate areas around two sensitive defence establishments — the Ordnance Factory Dehu Road (ammunition depot) and the Dighi Magazine Depot — where construction and development will be prohibited under the Works of Defence Act, 1903.
What is the Red Zone and Why It Matters
Under the proposed plan:
- A 2,000-yard radius around the Dehu Road ordnance depot.
- A 1,200-yard radius around the Dighi Magazine Depot.
Inside these zones, construction and new development will be prohibited — a regulation meant to uphold security and safety around defence assets.
Who Will Be Affected
The red-zone designation is expected to directly impact around 4,000 properties — both residential and commercial — that currently fall within the buffer zones of these depots.
Localities likely to be affected include (but are not limited to) Talawade, Nigdi, Ravet, Chikhali, Dighi, Bhosari, Yamuna Nagar, Rupi Nagar, Vadmukhwadi, and Bopkhel, among others.
For many residents and property owners, the new map brings long-awaited clarity. With unclear boundaries until now, there has been persistent confusion and concern over legal construction permissions.
Why the Map Was Needed
The process to draw accurate red-zone boundaries began after the state’s land-records department conducted a survey, employing satellite imagery to map the zones. The exercise was completed recently, and PCMC has spent over ₹1.13 crore for land measurement and mapping for the Dehu Road and Dighi areas.
The updated map was submitted to PCMC on 31 July 2025, according to civic-body officials.
However, publication has been delayed because the map must first be vetted by the defence authorities to ensure that no sensitive installations are exposed publicly.
What This Means for Residents and Property Owners
Once released, the map will:
- Clearly inform which properties lie inside the red zone (where construction is prohibited) and which lie outside (eligible for development).
- Provide long-awaited clarity for home-buyers, developers, and existing residents — helping avoid legal disputes over building permissions.
- Help civic authorities regulate illegal or unauthorised constructions that have proliferated over the decades due to boundary ambiguity.
An official from PCMC’s Town Planning Department, Kishor Gokhale, stated that the map has already been shared with defence authorities and they expect to receive a response within “the next four to five days,” after which the map will be made public.

Suhana Khan, daughter of Bollywood superstar Shah Rukh Khan, is reportedly under legal investigation following her purchase of agricultural land in Thal village, Alibaug, Maharashtra. The property was registered under Deja Vu Farm Private Limited, a business connected to Suhana's family, and was purchased in May 2023 for ₹12.91 crore from the Khote family of Mumbai's Cuffe Parade. During the transaction, she paid ₹77.46 lakh in stamp duty.
The dispute arises due to the status of the land: it was initially granted by the Maharashtra government in 1968 to be used for agriculture and had a 'no-sale' term attached to it. State policy dictates that farmers cannot buy agricultural land until they get permission from the District Collector. The authorities have questioned the validity of the transaction, stating that Suhana had been registered as a 'farmer' in the records.
Legal professionals have opined that the sale may be against land transfer rules, and there are demands for more legal action. The news follows Suhana as she gets set to make her Bollywood acting debut in King, sharing the screen with her dad, and adds to her expanding body of brand endorsement deals with firms such as Maybelline and Lux.
The probe is underway, and more information is awaited.

PMRDA Takes Action Against Illegal Plotting in Charholi Khurd Khed Taluka What Homebuyers Should Know
PMRDA- Pune Metropolitan Region Development Authority has started a strong action against illegal land plotting in Charholi Khurd, near Pune. This step is mainly to protect common people, especially middle-class families, from buying plots that are not legal.
What is Illegal Plotting?
Illegal plotting means dividing agricultural land into small plots without taking proper government permissions. These plots are sold for housing, but they do not have official approvals, maps, or basic infrastructure. As a result, people who buy such land face problems later—like not getting permission to build, or losing t heir money if the land is taken back by the government.
What Has PMRDA Done?
PMRDA, under the leadership of its Commissioner, has worked with the police to stop such illegal activities. They have taken action against some developers in Charholi Khurd by removing internal roads, boundary walls, and fences built without permission.
Concern for Buyers
This action has worried many people who already bought such plots, thinking everything was legal. Local leaders have asked PMRDA to give these buyers a chance to explain their situation. They also requested that the government think about ways to regularize these plots so that honest buyers don't suffer.
What Should Buyers Do Before Buying Land?
If you are planning to buy land, especially in areas around Pune, keep these tips in mind:
- Check for NA (Non-Agricultural) Permission: Only buy plots that have this permission.
- Approved Layout Map: Ask for the layout plan approved by PMRDA or the local authority.
- Talk to the Authorities: Visit the PMRDA office or municipal office to check if the land is legal.
- Take Legal Help: Always consult a lawyer before making a big investment like buying land.
Buying a home or plot is a big dream for many families. That’s why it’s important to be careful and well-informed. A little effort before buying can save a lot of trouble later.

Pune Ring Road Project Seeks Additional ₹1,220 Crore for Land Acquisition
The Pune Ring Road Project, a large infrastructure initiative aimed at decongesting Pune and Pimpri-Chinchwad, requires an additional ₹1,220 crore to finalise the land acquisition. The 169-kilometre road will provide smooth connectivity with national highways and divert heavy vehicles off city roads to enhance overall traffic flow.
To date, approximately 90% of the required land is in hand, with the western part virtually complete at 97% and the eastern part at 84%. The extra money is deemed critical to provide equitable compensation to landowners and avoid project time slippage.
Once built, the ring road should greatly improve connectivity, shorten travel times, and support the region's expanding infrastructure requirements. To maintain the momentum and see the project finished on time, the requested funds must be released in a timely manner.
Maharashtra Government Approves 70 Acres for IIM Nagpur’s Pune Campus
In a major boost to higher education in Maharashtra, the state government has approved the allocation of 70 acres of grazing land in Moshi, Pimpri-Chinchwad, for the establishment of a satellite campus of IIM Nagpur. Revenue Minister Chandrashekhar Bawankule confirmed that the land transfer process is already underway and will be completed shortly.
Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis welcomed the decision, emphasising the importance of expanding premier educational institutions, such as IIMs, across the country to support national development. The Pune campus will mark a first for IIMs by offering a flagship program in data science and management outside its main campus.
Strategically located near key industrial hubs, including Chakan, Talegaon, Ranjangaon MIDCs, and the Hinjewadi IT Park, the Moshi site offers excellent connectivity and infrastructure. The new campus will replicate IIM Nagpur’s main campus facilities, including an incubation centre and part-time courses designed for working professionals.
IIM Nagpur Director Bhimaraya Metri highlighted that the Pune campus is part of the institute’s broader expansion plans, which also include future campuses in Goa, Hyderabad, and Singapore.

Maharashtra to Map Subdivided Land Plots in 18 Talukas Under Pilot Project
The Maharashtra Land Records Department has launched a pilot project to measure and map subdivided land plots (sub-holdings) in selected areas of the state.
Over the years, many plots have been informally subdivided, creating mismatches between the 7/12 land ownership document and official cadastral maps. The project aims to record these subdivisions accurately.
A total of 18 talukas across six revenue divisions have been chosen for the initiative, including Pune, Palghar, Raigad, Thane, Solapur, Sangli, Dhule, Jalgaon, Chandrapur, and Kolhapur.
The work will be executed by private agencies, which are currently being finalised through a tendering process.
