The bill to amend the 118-year-old Punjab Land Preservation Act (PLPA) is said to have been approved by the cabinet and is likely to be tabled in the forthcoming assembly session. The amendment seeks to take out from the ambit of PLPA areas that have been notified under a master plan. Most of Gurgaon and Faridabad ecological preserves like Mangar Bani will go out of PLPA.
