The proposed redevelopment of a slum in Vile Parle East has come to a halt with the Slum Rehabilitation Authority asking the BMC to not proceed with the survey to list those eligible for flats. The SRA has, in its letter dated January 3, stated that the proposed Shree Parle Shraddha Cooperative Housing Society project was given a go ahead despite not having a no-objection certificate from the town planning department.
As per SRA guidelines, the developer has to take NOC from all departments concerned while submitting its proposal for the redevelopment to SRA. An SRA official, on the condition of anonymity, said that the developer for the Shree Parle Shraddha CHS project did not have permission from the town planning department but some officials still cleared it.
