Legal hurdle gone, development back on track in Phase-9 Indl Area
Mohali, Sept. 15 -- With a two-year legal tussle over wrongful subdivision of land out of the way, 125 plot owners in Industrial Area, Phase 9, Mohali, can finally resume development of their stalled units and offices.

The Punjab government has allowed PSIEC to restore water, sewerage and power services to these units.
While approving the policy, the state cabinet also safeguarded bifurcations and fragmentations previously permitted by PSIEC under its earlier policies framed in 2005 and revised in 2021.
With the embargo now lifted and PSIEC's approval in place, industrialists in Phase 9 can finally move ahead with their projects, paving the way for long-stalled economic activity in the area.
A senior PSIEC officer confirmed that the corporation's Board of Directors, in a meeting held last month, resolved to restore services for bifurcated plots across different focal points. The decision regarding Industrial Area, Phase 9, Mohali, was taken in the first week of September, the officer added.
Welcoming the decision, Balwinder Jindal, president of the Mohali Chamber of Industry and IT and a plot owner in Phase 9, said, "We are grateful to the state government for allowing us to set up our units.
