New Chandigarh is being built as a planned city, and a planned city lives or dies by its road network. Wide, well-connected roads decide which sectors become easy to reach and which stay isolated. That is why two new GMADA notices, for the VR-6 and VR-10 roads, matter to landowners, plot buyers and investors in the area.

This guide explains what the notices actually say, what they do not say, how the legal process works, and what to check before you buy land near a proposed road. The New Chandigarh 200 feet road story is still at the notice stage, so we separate what is confirmed from what is only proposed.

GMADA’s Latest New Chandigarh Road Development Update

GMADA (Greater Mohali Area Development Authority) has published notices for land acquisition linked to two roads in New Chandigarh’s road grid, VR-6 and VR-10. GMADA’s website also lists a notification titled “Construction of 60 meter wider road VR-10 SAS Nagar” (Notification No. 201, view on GMADA), which confirms the 60-metre width for VR-10.

Both roads are described in the notices as 60 metres wide, which is about 200 feet. The villages come under Sub-Tehsil Majri. The notice lists are on GMADA’s notice portal: VR-6 notice and VR-10 notice.

The official plan behind these roads

New Chandigarh’s roads come from the Proposed Zonal Land Use Plan, New Chandigarh, 2008 to 2031, prepared by the Punjab Department of Town and Country Planning. The plan carries a date of 28 December 2015 and says it was approved by the Punjab Regional and Town Planning and Development Board in its 30th meeting on 9 December 2015. Its legend defines “VR” as vertical road and “HR” as horizontal road, and its road table lists VR-1 to VR-10. Its map labels use 60 m (200 ft) as one of the right-of-way widths.

VR-6 Road: 200-Foot Road Development Details

Be careful with names. Rani Majra is not the same as Dayi Majra, and mixing them up can send a buyer to the wrong revenue record. The official notice is the controlling source.

VR-6 is not a blank slate. The plan’s road table lists it as Northern Avenue, and a December 2025 Tribune report described some internal VR-6 stretches as unfinished, quoting an Omaxe township resident on the delays. So some parts may exist on the ground while the land for the wider road is still being acquired. Confirm the stage of the exact stretch you care about.

What landowners should know

• Read the notice for your village and find your khasra number in it.
• Being in a listed village does not mean your plot is on the road. Only land inside the alignment is.
• Keep your jamabandi and ownership papers ready and ask for legal advice early.

VR-10 Road: 200-Foot Road Development Details

VR-10 is the longer of the two. GMADA’s listing calls it a 60 metre wide road in SAS Nagar (the Mohali district). The zonal plan’s road table also shows a 60 m width against VR-10, although the extracted table is hard to read, so check it in the original drawing.

Potential connectivity relevance

A vertical road in a grid mainly links sectors to the horizontal and master-plan roads around them. We have not found an official start and end point for VR-10, so we do not name junctions. When GMADA publishes the alignment map, that is where connectivity claims should come from.

Why Is GMADA Developing Wider Roads in New Chandigarh?

Quick answer: A New Chandigarh 200 feet road is part of a planned hierarchy. A planned city needs a clear road hierarchy so traffic, utilities and growth have room. Wide vertical and horizontal roads carry long-distance traffic, while smaller sector roads serve homes. In New Chandigarh, 60 m roads are part of that framework in the zonal plan.

These are verified facts: the plan has a vertical and horizontal road grid, 60 m is one of its right-of-way widths, and GMADA has notified other 200-foot roads in New Chandigarh as well. The rest is reasonable interpretation. Better access can support residential sectors, shops and offices along the roads, and it can ease pressure on connecting routes such as PR-7. For that corridor, see our PR7 road development guide.

The gap between plan and ground is real, though. The Tribune report named several New Chandigarh road works as unfinished, so timelines deserve caution.

How Can These Roads Influence New Chandigarh’s Property Market?

Quick answer: Does a New Chandigarh 200 feet road raise property prices? Not automatically. Better road access tends to make nearby land and homes easier to reach and to sell, but it does not guarantee higher prices. The effect depends on when the road is built, where exactly your property sits and whether the surrounding area is developed.

Pros and cons of buying near a proposed road

Which Areas and Villages Should Property Buyers Monitor?

Nine villages appear across the two notices for the New Chandigarh 200 feet road plan. We list them for monitoring, not as recommendations. None of them is a guaranteed hotspot.

• VR-6: Rani Majra, Kansala, Dhode Majra, Rasoolpur, Salamatpur and Bhadojiya.
• VR-10: Kunsala, Hushiarpur and Phadojiya.

Look at these villages together with the wider New Chandigarh picture: the Eco City projects, nearby townships and the PR-series roads. Our updates on Eco City-4 in New Chandigarh and the New Chandigarh property page give that context. Watch for the final alignment map, the status of each stretch and any objections or court cases.

Important Legal Checks Before Buying Land Near a Proposed GMADA Road

Land near a proposed road is where paperwork matters most. This checklist is the minimum.

1. Jamabandi: check the current owner and the land’s record.
2. Mutation: confirm the sale or transfer has been entered in revenue records.
3. Khasra verification: match the exact khasra number on the ground and on paper.
4. Ownership and title: trace the chain of sale deeds.
5. Encumbrances: look for loans, liens and attachments.
6. Approved land use: confirm residential, commercial or agricultural use.
7. CLU requirements: check whether a Change of Land Use is needed or done.
8. Master plan and zoning: compare with the zonal plan.
9. Acquisition notifications: check every notice that lists the village.
10. Road alignment: ask for the alignment map and see if your khasra is inside it.
11. Court cases and disputes: search for pending litigation.
12. Written verification: ask the competent authority to confirm in writing.

Quick answer: You must check the exact khasra number against the acquisition notice and alignment map, because notices name villages, not individual plots. A broker saying “it is not in the road” is not proof, and a wrong guess can cost you the land. Use our GMADA property verification guide, our guide to checking GMADA property details online and the Punjab Property Legal Knowledge Centre.

What Does the Land Acquisition Process Mean for Landowners?

Land acquisition for public purposes in India is governed by the Right to Fair Compensation and Transparency in Land Acquisition, Rehabilitation and Resettlement Act, 2013 (Act 30 of 2013). The steps below show the usual order. Read the notice itself for the exact section, dates and any timelines, because this article does not state any deadline for VR-6 or VR-10.

The key point is that a notification is only the start. Do not treat it as a completed acquisition, and do not treat a road on a plan as a road under construction. This is general information, not legal advice, so speak to a qualified lawyer about your land. For a wider explanation, read our GMADA land acquisition guide.

New Chandigarh vs Mohali vs Zirakpur: Where Should You Invest?

There is no universal winner. The right choice depends on your budget, purpose, possession needs and how much risk you accept. Here is a fair side-by-side.

Who should consider this and who should wait

• Long-term investors with patience and clean legal papers may study New Chandigarh closely.
• Self-use buyers who need a home soon may prefer ready areas in Mohali or Zirakpur.
• NRI buyers can buy, but should rely on verified documents and virtual visits, not forwarded messages.
• Anyone who cannot verify the khasra number should wait until they can.

What About Property Prices Near These Roads?

Prices near proposed roads move with plot size, location, approvals, demand and timing, and they change often. We do not publish rates here because a number printed today can be wrong within weeks. Ask for the current position for the exact property you are considering.

Final Verdict

The New Chandigarh 200 feet road plan is a positive sign for the city’s structure, but at this stage VR-6 and VR-10 are proposed roads under land acquisition notices. Infrastructure announcements can create opportunities. Smart property investment still depends on:

• Exact location and khasra number
• Legal verification
• Development status
• Actual connectivity
• Entry price
• Future usability
• Exit strategy
