High Court Forms Panel to Review MHADA Notices on Cessed Buildings
The High Court is checking if MHADA officials misused their power by issuing notices about old buildings that need repair in Mumbai.
A special committee will review these notices.
MHADA says they won't act on most of them unless people agree to fix up their buildings.
The court wants to make sure everything was done fairly.
Bombay High Court formed a committee to review 935 MHADA notices.

The committee will examine notices and potential misuse of power.
MHADA stated that 889 notices will be on hold.
The committee must submit a report within six months.
