In order to ensure that developers do not harass residents by not giving them rents and possession of their houses on time, the Maharashtra Housing and Area Development Authority (MHADA) has written to the chief minister requesting him to bring all redevelopment projects under the purview of MahaRERA. Not just this, MHADA has also issued a circular mentioning that approvals for such projects would be given within 65 to 70 days, in order to fix responsibility and prevent unnecessary delays as well.
Speaking to mid-day, Madhu Chavan, Chairman of MHADA's Mumbai Board, said, "We have been receiving a number of complaints about developers not paying rent to residents after demolishing buildings for redevelopment. Hence, to prevent such situations, these projects should be brought under the purview of MahaRERA. In this way the developers will be answerable and even the residents will not suffer. Earlier this week, I wrote to the chief minister regarding this."
