Properties in Defence Colony Delhi

Started in 2006, the redevelopment work is far from completion but might get on track as the Bombay High Court has cleared the deck for the construction work to start. The project was in litigation due to a rule imposed by the Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation that the developer must execute a permanent agreement with the old homeowners to get the construction commencement certificate. As the Bombay HC has set aside this condition, the work might begin soon.

After the state government made the Mhada as the planning authority for 56 colonies, the authority has now approved six of the 60 proposals submitted by various projects across Mumbai. The approval of proposals means that the city will soon have a new supply of over six lakh homes. Calling it a housing bonanza, the new supply will help the city overcome the space shortage it faces.

The Supreme Court has halted further constructions in 1,797 colonies of Delhi, which are not in conformity with the building bye laws. The top court has asked the Centre to set up a special task force to oversee enforcement of laws regarding illegal constructions. Also, the Delhi High Court has warned the Delhi government of a time bomb in the making owing to its vested interest of regularising illegal constructions with the support of municipal corporations.
