Forest Trails Residents Raise Alarm Over Alleged Illegal Construction on Reserved LandPune Collector Meets Farmers Affected by Purandar Airport Project: What’s the Update
The office of the Pune District Collectorate convened a meeting with farmers and residents from villages in Purandar taluka whose land is proposed to be acquired for the new Purandar International Airport. The session, led by Jitendra Dudi, aimed to address farmer concerns about compensation, rehabilitation, and the future implications of the project.
What Was Discussed: Farmers’ Concerns & Administration’s Assurances
During the meeting, many of the key issues raised by the affected landowners were heard carefully. These included:
- Demand for fair land valuation and compensation
- Request for rehabilitation plots or housing for displaced families
- Compensation for ancillary assets: houses, wells, borewells, fruit-bearing trees, cattle sheds, etc.
- Requests for tax and stamp-duty exemptions, and other concessions for impacted families
- Assurance of transparent crop surveys and fair asset valuation for non-land assets like borewells, trees, and structures
- Consideration of employment opportunities or skill development for locals affected by the acquisition
Collector Dudi reassured the attendees that the administration would maintain transparency throughout the process — in land valuation, compensation disbursement, and rehabilitation. He also indicated that updates would be shared regularly.
What Compensation Package is Being Offered (Proposed)
Earlier in November 2025, the administration proposed a base compensation of ₹1 crore per acre for the land being acquired under the airport project. Farmers are also being offered double compensation for on-site assets (houses, wells, pipelines, trees, etc.) along with 10% of developed land in the upcoming Aero-City for those who lose their homes. The offer also covers:
- 250 sq m residential plots in the planned Aerocity zone for those whose homes are acquired.
-
Compensation for becoming landless or small land-holders under the relevant provisions.
Land Consent and Survey Status
As of September 2025, the administration claims to have secured consent from nearly 90% of the required landowners, covering around 2,700 acres out of 3,000 acres needed for the project.
What’s at Stake for Farmers & Locals
Thousands of rural families are waiting for justice and clarity regarding the more than 3,000 acres in seven villages designated for acquisition. Not only are landowners impacted, but many people who depend on small holdings, livestock, and agriculture are as well.
Fair compensation, an open process, rehabilitation, and the preservation of livelihoods are still at stake, even though the airport project promises urbanisation and development.
Maharashtra Govt Clears 40,000 Sq. Meter Land Proposal in Just 2 Hours 34 Minutes
In a powerful display of administrative efficiency, the Maharashtra government approved a 40,000 sq. meter land expansion proposal in just 2 hours and 34 minutes—setting a new benchmark for fast-tracked governance.
India’s Commerce and Industry Minister Piyush Goyal was addressing global business leaders. During the meeting, a Swiss company representative requested additional land for their manufacturing unit in Maharashtra, which required reclassification of adjacent green-zone land.
Minister Goyal immediately shared the request with the Maharashtra Industrial Development Corporation (MIDC). In under three hours, the land approval was confirmed, and the green zone was officially relocated—demonstrating Maharashtra’s commitment to ease of doing business.
This real-time approval was witnessed by nearly 1,000 Swiss business leaders and over 90 Indian companies. The swift action sent a strong message to international investors: India, and particularly Maharashtra, is ready to support global industry with speed and efficiency.

The process of conducting land surveys in Pune's Haveli Taluka, which had been suspended since mid-May as part of a statewide staff strike, will now be resumed with new dates. The surveys formed part of an ongoing effort to settle land measurement and ownership disputes, but the work was stalled because of the absence of government surveyors.
Authorities have confirmed that all previously scheduled survey dates in the Haveli region are now invalid. Landowners who had appointments for their land surveys will be required to wait for fresh dates, which are expected to be announced within the next 20 to 25 days once the strike concludes.
To address the staffing gaps caused by the strike, administration has already made arrangements for smooth resumption of work. Several surveyors have been transferred out of the taluka and new personnel have already been deployed in their place. This will help in clearing the backlog.
About 200 pending cases because of the strike will be dealt with on a priority basis. Landowners will be notified personally regarding their revised survey dates once activities resume in full swing.
Survey is an important component of settling property boundaries, title conflicts and renewing records. Landowners of Haveli Taluka can look for clarity and development in the weeks to come with work restarting soon.

India to Replace 117 Year Old Registration Act with New, Digital First Legislation
In a path-breaking step that seeks to restructure the manner in which property and document registrations are conducted in India, the Union Ministry of Rural Development has unveiled the Draft Registration Bill, 2025 to supplant the century-old Registration Act of 1908. The proposed legislation is intended to digitize the process, render it transparent and citizen-centric, and much more in tune with the contemporary legal and tech environment.
Digital-First System
The entire registration process is e-based—document submission, verification, and issuance of certificate. Aadhaar-based authentication facility provided (optional with opt-in) with fallback ID options.
Increased Scope for Registrations
More documents are compulsorily registrable, i.e., sale agreements, power of attorney, sale certificates, court orders, equitable mortgages, and wills.
Transparency & Accountability
Reasons for refusal to be recorded in writing by registration officers.Suitable procedures made for cancellation of registrations, so natural justice is preserved.
System Interoperability
Interoperates with other computerized government systems for fraud-free and correct data sharing among departments.
Institutional Reforms
Establishment of new positions like Assistant Registrars and Inspectors-General. Authority to frame rules vested in states and Centre to facilitate effective enforcement.
Citizen-Centric Measures
Return of overpayment of fees, lower fee charge for cases involving multiple documents, and waiver for individuals not able to appear in person. Safe deposit of wills permitted.
Industry Support
Backed by CREDAI, NAREDCO and other real estate associations to enhance transparency, ease of doing business, and check fraud.
Public Feedback Invited
The public and stakeholders are invited to submit inputs on the draft bill by June 25, 2025.
Expected Outcome
Increased confidence in property transactions, fewer disputes, and an updated, tech-savvy property registration system to the advantage of all stakeholders.

Pune Revenue Department Makes 7 12 Land Record Corrections Online Only
In a major step toward curbing malpractices and enhancing transparency in land management, the Pune Revenue Department has made it a requirement that all the corrections to the 7/12 land extract—a key document providing information regarding land ownership and rights—shall be henceforth done only through an online system.
This directive covers all the amendments under Section 155 of the Maharashtra Land Revenue Code, that permit amendments like changing names of owners, size of the land or correction of clerical mistakes.
Why This Matters
The move comes in light of recent developments where certain tehsildars were found to be abusing their authority by making manual alterations to government and grazing land records—transferring ownership or even changing land details at times without adequate reasons. Such acts not only erode public faith but could also result in full-blown land conflicts.
By adopting a completely digital approach, the department makes sure that:
All alterations can be traced
Each correction will be supported by a documentary proof, and the name of the revenue officer initiating the modification will be captured in the system.
Offline edits are void
All manual changes will cease to have legal sanctity.
Increased accountability
The reform facilitates easier auditing and detection of unauthorized changes.
What Landowners Need to Know
Anybody who wishes to rectify their land information in the 7/12 extract will now:
Submit through the authorized government website
Submit genuine documents to accompany their application
Follow status online
This scheme is not just an effort to curb malpractice but also a forward step towards digitized, corruption-free land records of Maharashtra.

Pune's road network is set for a major boost as the long-awaited access road connecting Kothrud to the Pune-Bangalore Highway has finally cleared its last hurdle. The Pune Municipal Corporation (PMC) has successfully resolved the land acquisition issue near Eklavya College, paving the way for the completion of this vital 15-meter-wide Development Plan (DP) road.
The new road will start from Yashwantrao Chavan Natyagruha and pass through Ashish Garden, Guruganeshnagar, Surajnagar, and Kumbre Park before joining the highway near Eklavya College. This stretch is expected to significantly ease traffic congestion in the area, offering residents a faster and more direct route to the highway. Currently, commuters rely on Mahatma Society Road or Paud Road, often facing long delays and bottlenecks. Once completed, the travel time from Kothrud to Warje or Chandani Chowk could drop from 25–30 minutes to just 5 minutes.
With the final 100 meters of land now acquired, PMC is set to begin construction immediately, with completion expected within a month. This new link is also part of the PMC’s mission to complete 33 key road links across the city, improving connectivity and urban mobility.
Residents and city officials have welcomed the development, resolving Pune’s traffic woes and improving the quality of life in the Kothrud.
