Punjab to Use Traditional Land Acquisition for Aerotropolis Extension

The Punjab government is changing how it will acquire land for a new housing project called Aerotropolis.

Instead of asking landowners to give up land willingly, the government will now buy it through a process called land acquisition.

They plan to do environmental and social impact studies first.

After buying the land, the government will give landowners plots and commercial space.

This change comes after an earlier plan to get land was canceled due to protests.

The government hopes to complete the project before the end of its term.
