The Punjab New Capital (Periphery) Control Act, 1952
The Punjab New Capital (Periphery) Control Act, 1952
This Act regulates development activities in Haryana within 10 miles of the Chandigarh capital's acquired boundaries. It empowers officials to designate controlled zones where building construction, excavation, and road access require written permission. The Director grants these permits subject to conditions ensuring orderly development and protecting public interests. Agricultural buildings and pre-existing structures receive special consideration. By establishing development controls in this peri-peripheral area, the law prevents unplanned urban growth around Chandigarh, ensuring the capital's planned layout and functionality are preserved while facilitating necessary agricultural activities within the designated zone.
