The residents of Old Chikhalwadi, a prime 1.54 acre plot behind
Bhatia Hospital in Tardeo, have written to state housing department and MHADA authorities requesting them not to give clearances to developer Shreepati Skies for redevelopment of the chawls.
The developer should first clear transit rent arrears of Rs 6 crore, pending for the last five years, and submit fresh written consent of 51 per cent of the 228 residents of the 12 chawls before it receives clearance, they have said.
The fraudsters were picked up after crime branch police inspectors Kedar Pawar and Laxmikant Salunke received a tipoff.
