SANJEEV SHIVADEKAR sanjeev. shivadekar@ mid- day. com TWO months after a local activist approached the state environment department about construction work being carried out for a proposed residential complex at Village Tirandaz, Powai, in violation of environmental norms, the government issued a notice to Skyline Mansions Pvt Limited warning of action if the developer failed to furnish all necessary approvals and documents along with a reply within u0090 u009d days. The Kanakia Group is developing the project on a plot owned by Narottam Sharama.
Locals have been protesting against the construction activities for a long time. Local corporator Suresh Patil ( Shiv Sena), too, had written to the BMC administration last year alleging that construction work was being carried out on a plot marked as a no- development zone and that it should be immediately stopped.

Reiterating that all the work was being carried out as per the rules and norms, the spokesperson claimed that the allegations were baseless and done with a mala fide intention.
