Maharashtra allows redevelopment of single buildings in Mhada layout
Dec 07, 2022
It was applicable to Mumbai, Pune, Nashik and Konkan, but residents can now take up redevelopment of their dilapidated structures.
MUMBAI: The Eknath Shinde government has struck down the April 2022 decision of the MVA regime not to allow redevelopment of single buildings in a Mhada layout.
It was applicable to Mumbai, Pune, Nashik and Konkan, but residents can now take up redevelopment of their dilapidated structures.
The MVA decision disallowed redevelopment of single buildings unless there were exceptional circumstances and instead promoted cluster redevelopment.
In a Government Resolution (GR) issued on Tuesday, the state housing department said it was not possible to obtain consent of more than one building for redevelopment. "Furthermore, owing to internal disputes, the possibility of the redevelopment being delayed cannot be ruled out. This could lead to the loss of life and property and hence the government has been considering scrapping the rule," stated the GR.
Last week, President Droupadi Murmu also gave assent to an amendment to Mhada Act that allowed forcible acquisition and redevelopment of old and dilapidated buildings in the island city by the housing authority. There are over 16,000 such buildings in the island city and redevelopment of 56 buildings has been stalled for years.
