Increase in Construction NoC Applications Near Lohegaon Air Force Base Amid Urban Growth
Pune's eastern suburbs see a 32% rise in construction clearance requests from 2020 to 2025 due to urban expansion. This trend underscores the need for careful coordination between urban development and aviation safety measures.

Applications for No Objection Certificates (NoCs) around Lohegaon Air Force Station surged from 1,062 in 2020 to 1,401 in 2025, marking a nearly 32% increase. This trend reflects rapid urbanisation and the rise of residential and infrastructure projects in the area.
Each construction proposal undergoes strict assessments to ensure compliance with height restrictions and safety norms to protect flight operations. The urban growth around the airbase necessitates enhanced collaboration among civic authorities, developers, and defense sectors to balance development with aviation safety. The anticipated continued rise in applications emphasizes the ongoing challenges of managing urban expansion near operational military facilities.
