About Gmada Eco City
& Medi City Project …
High on the success of Aerocity, Greater Mohali
Area Development Authority (GMADA) is all set to float a scheme for freehold
residential plots in phase-I of its Urban Estate at Mullanpur New
Chandigarh. The plotted residential development under GMADA, Ecocity is the
upcoming Ultra modern Township at Mullanpur, New Chandigarh. Quite synonymous
to its name, it is surrounded by lush green areas. The scheme launched in the
year 2011 for the allotment of 836 residential plots evoked overwhelming
response as approximately 1, 60,000 applications were received and total
numbers of plots are more than 2800. Planned to the south of MDR-B, Eco City
Phase-I is being developed on an area of 400 acres, which has been acquired
under 100% Land Pooling, thereby making the farmers as the stakeholders
and none of the farmers have been uprooted. Development works are on a spree at
the site and are likely to be completed by January, 2014. Development is being
carried out by M/s Larsen & Toubro Ltd. Total area under development of the
scheme is 400 acres and the total project cost of development is Rs. 151
crores, out of which Rs. 50 crores have already been spent on the construction
of roads and providing Public Health, Electrical, Horticulture Services, etc.
Around 450 acres of additional land is being acquired for Eco City Phase-II.
Compensation will be paid as per the policy to the land owners whose land will
be acquired for the project.
As
it is crucial to integrate nature with health, the Medicity has been located
adjacent to the restricted PLPA land. A total area of 350 acres has been marked
for the Health Zone out of which 100 acres has already been acquired by GMADA
under 100% Land Pooling , thereby making the farmers as the stakeholders and none
of the farmers have been uprooted. Land owners of Medicity would be allotted
residential and commercial plots/sites in Eco City as per their entitlement
under the land pooling scheme. The remaining 260 acres is being acquired.
Out of the already acquired 100 acres, 50 acres of land has been allotted for
the development of the Tata Cancer Hospital, work on which is underway. Civil
works are in progress at the site and target is to finish the project by 2015.
The project so completed would provide facilities for clinical research,
training and education.
