130 Mhada flats in CM quota lying vacant
Over 80 flats from last year and 50 flats from this year are lying vacant in Mhada buildings.This,when there is an acute affordable housing shortage in the city.The situation has arisen as Mr.Chauhan (the current CM) has relinquished his authority to allot 2% flats in affordable housing schemes of Mhada.Mr.Chauhan has avoided housing schemes like the plague after all the recent housing scams.He has given up the discretionary quota too.Earlier CM’s made merry on this quota and rewarded their cronies and yes men with flats in this quota.This way they could buy the press,reporters and other people who needed some incentive to toe their line.This year too,the Mhada has reserved 50 flats out of the 2593 flats up for lottery,which will has been declared today at Rang sharda auditorium,Bandra.The state govt has not eliminated this quota yet hence this reservation.Mhada has recieved 1.5 lakh applications for 2593 houses up for grabs.11,179 applications were rejected.3995 were filled with the same account number but with different names.177 had same pan number but different names.Under these circumstances,it would be ideal if the govt could give up the claim over these flats for once and for all.

Municipal officers to face jail for illegal constructions
In a landmark move, the President of India has given her approval to the amendment in the Maharashtra municipal councils, Municipal corporations and MRTP act 2010,whereby the municipal officers who allow illegal constructions to stand despite complaints now face jail for a month or a fine of Rs.25,000.Mr.Bhaskar Jadhav (Minister of Urban Development) informed the legislative assembly recently.The modification of the above acts, allows appointment of an officer to the said municipal corporations, councils, panchayats and industrial townships (MIDC),who will ensure demolition of illegal structures. If the officer doesn’t perform his duties to demolish illegal constructions, he will be either imprisoned for a month or fined Rs.25000.To ensure that the officer does his duty unhindered, the govt has already sanctioned the deputation of a DCP or ACP to the municipal corporation, council, panchayat etc.State law amendments are sent to the Centre for approval if the matter they deal with is on the concurrent list. Since the modification deals with imprisonment, it was sent to the President for approval.But before you start celebrating, the devil lies in the details, namely, the Rules for such a prosecution, which are yet to be framed. The Minister of Urban Development says that the framing…
Property tax-Builders to be held accountable?
Flat buyers are often kept in the dark about the property taxes due on their plot/flat at the time of possession. Only later do they realize that they have been shortchanged by the builder/developer when they are slapped Property Tax Due Certificate by the Municipal Corporation, which sometimes can be to the tune of a few lakhs!It helps to remember that until the possession of the flat is handed over to the flat buyer, all taxes due on the flat/plot, are payable by whoever owns the flat/plot, which in most cases is the builder/developer. Often with the connivance of the Municipal corporations, the builder escaped payment of this tax. The Municipal corporation, which can easily make it mandatory for the builders to pay all liable taxes before handing over the Occupancy Certificate for the flat/building, happily chose to look the other way.All this is set to change if the Minister for Urban Development, Mr.Bhaskar Jadhav, is to be believed.According to the new rules proposed by the Minister. Builders will have to pay property tax for 3 years at the time of issuance of the Commencement Certificate and if the construction is not complete at the end of 3 years, he…
