MAHARASHTRA Chief Minister Eknath Shinde has warned that the state Government will fine builders if they do not complete projects of Maharashtra Housing and Area Development Authority (MHADA) in time.
Speaking at an event to draw a lottery for 5,311 flats under the Konkan division of MHADA, he called for timely completion of projects with quality, failing which the contractors / builders concerned would be penalised.
Some projects linger so much that they have to be reworked again, the CM lamented. He said builders who complete MHADA projects on time would be rewarded and given additional incentives, but the projects should be completed on time.

The lottery of 5,311 houses of Konkan MHADA was drawn at the event held at Gadkari Rangayatan in Thane. While congratulating the winners, Shinde said that the lottery system of MHADA is very transparent. “Nobody works in MHADA based on anyone’s recommendation. As a result, people’s trust in MHADA is increasing,” he added.
Shinde said that those who were deprived of houses will also get houses in the second lot. He mentioned that till date nine lakh houses have been given through MHADA and the work of providing houses to mill workers will soon begin.
