MHADA Resolves Long-Pending Cases at Lokshahi Din

Mumbai / September 9, 2024: MHADA organized Lokshahi Din on Monday and resolved a few pending cases quickly. Of the nine applications heard on Lokshahi DIn, four were related to the Mumbai Board, while five were related to the Mumbai Repair and Reconstruction Board. 

In the first case, a 35-year-old case concerning the regularization of a flat was resolved. The case, involving the legal heirs of the late B. S. Rele, a member of a housing society in D.N. Nagar, Andheri, had been pending for decades. After the hearing, MHADA Vice President and CEO Sanjeev Jaiswal directed that the flat be regularized in the name of Milind Rele and his family, a statement from MHADA said. 

Additionally, Jaiswal resolved the long-pending issue of regularizing the tenement of Bharti Wangari, a member of the Pawan Chhaya Cooperative Housing Society in Prabhadevi, which had been pending since 2009. He directed the concerned officers to take immediate action and instructed them to notify the unauthorized occupants, the statement added. 

In the case of Vandana Sharma from Andheri West, the developer was supposed to provide two flats to a tenant in the redeveloped building, but the developer gave only one flat to the beneficiary. Jaiswal opined that the house is more important than the other facilities in the society. Since the developer has failed to provide flat to the tenants he said and instructed that changes be made to the building’s map to allocate the second flat to Sharma by reducing the space of the fitness center, and the necessary carpet area fees should be charged accordingly from the beneficiary.

During the hearing of Gopal Dhuri’s application, Jaiswal directed the authorities to immediately review the documents regarding the eligibility of Dhuri’s flat, which had been surveyed in 2000, and to make a decision accordingly.
