The Builders Association of India (BAI) has urged Chief Minister Prithviraj Chavan to intervene and provide necessary directions to authorities to audit current redevelopment policy to clear deadlock in Maharashtra Housing Area Development Authority (MHADA) properties that needs to be re-done.
In a letter to Chavan,the association has observed that redevelopment projects in all MHADA layouts have come to a grinding halt and no proposal under the new policy has come up since September 2010,as proposals under the changed policy are not as commercially viable and have resulted in huge revenue losses to the state housing authority.
Considering these facts,there is an urgent need to change the 2:1 ratio and adopt a premium basis policy as per the provisions of the DC Regulation 33(5)2 -c-(ii) for redevelopment of MHADA colonies and generate finance for creating more affordable housing stock as required, BAI said in a letter to Chavan.
