Mumbai: Nine years after nine families from the Santacruz (West) building emptied their homes for rebuilding, they would move to their new home on Tuesday.
The Bombay High Court has directed the builder to give them “actual physical ownership in Dhanteras, November 2, 2021, at 1pm”.
“This is a prize diwali for us,” Ashwin Shah, Secretary of Santacruz West End Chsl, told Tii.
Orders by Justice Gautam Patel came to the insulting petition submitted by the public against Builders K Mordani for delays.
The five-storey building with 10 flats was given to builders in December 2012.
Mordani included a plot in a much larger slum rehabilitation project in Andheri and thus the settlement of the building was detained.
The community moved the High Court in 2018.
Some SRA requests to submit the ‘absurd’ flat: HCNINE BOMBAY FAMILY from a Santacruz building will move to the houses rebuilt on Tuesday after the Bombay High Court order.
The reconstructed building is land with a three-story podium plus 13 floors.
It has a rehabilitation component for members of up to 5 floors and sold outside.
On August 27, the approval requirements were submitted for the work certificate for 5 floors for 9 members, subject to compliance by the builder.
One member swapped his flat for duplex.
On October 27, the community advocated Karl Tamboly and Tushar Goradia told Justice Patel Part-OC was not accepted.
Conversely, the slum rehabilitation authority (SRA) provides a request list builder and demands.
Judge Patel was annoyed that 2 months later, members did not have a house.
“SRA and builders can continue like this as long as they want but I don’t see the reason why members of the community who are trying to get the rehabilitation component must be captured in cross fire or are badly affected by this.
The struggle between Builder and SRA,” he said in his order.
Justice Patel slammed SRA, said it didn’t seem to appreciate that it was a public body and his officers were civil servants “intended to serve the interests of city citizens, especially the poorest”.
He also said it seems “very strange” that SRA constantly complained that suddenly discovered deviations when it was a special planning authority and was bound to monitor construction.
Justice Patel calls several SRA requests as “absurd.” Two certificates are needed to be laminated.
“Of course OC and citizens’ houses cannot be detained because of laminate, ” he said.
Someone said the structural engineer license ended on March 31.” But what about that? The license ends and is renewed regularly, “he said.
He directed the SRA to issue part-oC at 5 pm.
Also, that” Members are given the actual physical ownership of their respective units about Dhanteras will submit to reasonable compliance.
Advocate Mordani, Ankit Lohia said the upcomes will be completed on November 30.
Justice Patel said if the developer does not comply, his rights to the sales component can be limited and SRA will be in Liberty to take such action “without affecting the rehabilitation component Of course.
