The Sun Beach Resort in Gorai, which recently got a health licence despite being under litigation, now also faces allegations of CRZ norms violation. BJP leader Shiva Shetty has alleged that the resort spread around four acres bordering the sea face at Gorai has indulged in construction activities in stark violation of the Coastal Regulation Zone norms and has called for action on the lines of charges that Transport Minister Anil Parab and Sena leader Milind Narvekar are facing. The resort had been under BMC scanner following plaints of illegal construction and the civic body had undertaken a demolition drive there in 2014.

Complaints since 2016

Later in 2016, Shetty, who was a Congress corporator, had filed a complaint with the Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation informing about alleged encroachment of government land, construction of a swimming pool and rooms on the premises of the resort in violation of the CRZ norms. However, as the civic body did not take action, Shetty took up the issue with then chief minister Devendra Fadnavis and the Mumbai suburban collector, seeking action against the resort management and owner.
