MahaSeWA Seeks Guidelines to Protect Residents in Mumbai Projects

MahaSeWA Seeks Guidelines to Protect Residents in Mumbai Projects

MahaSeWA wants new rules to protect people in Mumbai whose buildings are being rebuilt.

They are asking the government to create rules for private building projects, similar to the ones for slum redevelopment.

Currently, builders sometimes don't pay rent on time, leaving families with problems.

The SRA rules ensure rent is paid upfront, but private projects don't have this protection.

They want rules to ensure builders pay rent on time, especially because many buildings are old and need to be rebuilt.

This is important for people, especially senior citizens, who could be left with financial struggles.

By creating such rules, the process will become more transparent and residents will be more secure.
