RS Bhath, district town planner (enforcement) said, “It was found that additions and alterations had been made in these structures by way of constructing rooms and toilets in stilts while the buildings are still incomplete. Any such violations will not be tolerated.”

In the past two weeks, the enforcement wing of the department has cancelled around 50 occupancy certificates in different areas after violations were detected in the structures.

DTCP officials said that five teams have been constituted to inspect houses where OCs have been issued.

In another development, the department has issued directions to developers of delayed affordable projects to expedite construction work. The directions were issued following a meeting last week called by senior town planner with nine developers.

The DTCP officials said that directions have been issued to the developers after assessing delayed projects as the affordable housing projects must be completed in four years. “The developers have been asked to increase the pace of construction so that project deadlines are adhered to. Also, directions have been issued that demand for money from buyers should be made in proportion to the construction of the project,” said a senior official, requesting anonymity.
