MUMBAI: Over a year after top builders working with the BMC, Mhada and other planning authorities got the benefit, the state government approved the flexible installment facility to pay premiums for builders in the Slum Rehabilitation Authority (SRA). State Urban Development (UD) Minister Eknath Shinde approved the file after the BJP threatened to protest if the file was not approved by Monday.
“The file has been approved,” said Bhushan Gagrani, Principal Secretary, UD department. Officials said that a letter will be sent to the SRA from the UD department with the clarification this week.
Last week, the BJP had hit out at the Maha Vikas Aghadi (MVA) government for not giving installment facilities to SRA developers.
