Model Tenancy Act likely to be approved by March: Housing secretary
The ministry floated the draft model tenancy law in July 2019. It proposes to establish an independent authority in every state and Union Territory for registration of tenancy agreements and even a separate court to take up all tenancy-related disputes.
The Model Tenancy Act is in advance stages with the template having been shared with the state governments and is likely to be cleared by March, housing and urban affairs secretary Durga Shanker Mishra has said.
“It is in advance stages and we have sent the template to the state governments. Within a month we will be taking it to the cabinet. It should definitely be through by March,” he told reporters.
