Flat owners in nearly 20 societies of the MHADA in Dahisar are in a tizzy over a notice sent by it, threatening to take back the houses allotted to them. A resolution passed by the MHADA in 2013 mentions that flat owners can rent their tenements. But its Estate Department is singing a different tune now, and has issued the notice.

According to the notice issued in December 2019 (a copy of which is with this paper) the department has asked nearly 20 societies including Shiv Samarth, Ravi Kiran, Dream Land, Vrindavan, Shree Samarth and Swapnapurti to furnish a list of flat owners who have given their houses on rent. The notice has been sent despite the resolution passed in 2013, and notification about the same issued by the Maharashtra Housing and Area Development Authority which allows the flat owners to rent the property.
