Is this news about R. K. Lunkad Group's Alankapuram at Wadmukhwadi on Alandi Road?

Without waiting for the government sanction for its draft development plan (DP), Pimpri-Chinchwad Municipal Corporation (PCMC) converts a plot in Wadmukhwadi reserved for "industrial purposes" into "residential zone!"

This is the second time in a month that the civic administration finds itself in an embarsassing situation. Earlier, the construction of four floors at the 12-floor Midori Towers in Pimple Nikah was found to be illegal.

Municipal Commissioner Asheesh Sharma said he would seek information from his officers about the residential project on a nine-acre plot in Wadmukhwadi, which was merged with the PCMC in 1997. "I have received a complaint. The project was sanctioned before I took charge as commissioner. I will have to verify the details."

"The building permission department has permitted construction of 344 flats and several row of houses despite objections raised by its own town planning department."

The deputy director of town planning had, in a letter dated 15 February, 2008, to the building permission department, said it would not be appropriate to change the status of the land till the draft DP was approved. Read More:

Flood-lines along rivers Mula, Pavana and Indrayani flowing through Pimpri-Chinchwad Municipal Corporation are likely to be redrawn!

Pimpri-Chinchwad Mayor Yogesh Behl said District Guardian Minister Ajit Pawar, in a meeting convened by him in Mumbai on Tuesday, directed the irrigation officials to consider the average rains and floods in the past 100 years and suggest the floodlines along the three rivers passing through PCMC limits.

Shiv Sena MP Gajanan Babar had alleged that the mayor was spawning a TDR racket by trying to get flood-lines redrawn.

The move has come under fire from activists too, who say, the crores spent on redrawing the flood-lines would go waste. “Over Rs one crore was spent when the PCMC got the irrigation department to redraw the floodlines.

Now, if they are redrawing the floodlines again, it would be a huge waste of money. Somebody should be held responsible for this...,” said civic activist Shridhar Chalkha.

“It seems efforts are on to save land belonging to some bigwigs,” said another activist Deepak Chandekar.

Municipal Commissioner Asheesh Sharma said nothing concrete has emerged in the meeting. "Another meeting has been scheduled in Mumbai next week where a final decision — whether to redraw the floodlines or not — would be taken,” he said. Read More:

Midori Towers, Pimple Nilakh Pune - news update about construction of 4 extra floors without permission

Builder can pay a fine and regularize the construction but what about "changing the course of a nullah and pushing a floodline inside?"

How are Vikram Developers going to convince the property buyers, who have booked flats in Midori Towers at Pimple Nilakh Pune, that their life and investment is safe?

Midori Towers construction without permission

Pimpri-Chinchwad Municipal Corporation (PCMC) decides to impose a fine of Rs 50 lakh on Vikrant Developers to regularize the project, Midori Towers, Pimple Nilakh:

PCMC deputy engineer Vasant Kachi said the builder was granted permission for constructing eight floors 2007.

"However, it has been found that four floors of the three buildings of Midori Towers were constructed without permission," he said.

Kachi said the PCMC will impose a compounding fees on the builder to regularize the project as demanded by him.

"He had submitted his transfer of development rights (TDR) plan for the extra floors. If a TDR file is pending with us and a builder constructs illegal floors, he can get it regularized by paying a compound fees. Here, the builder faces a fine of over Rs 50 lakh, 20 per cent of the project cost," he said.

As per the news in today's Indian Express, Avinash Gaikwad, director of Vikrant Developers, said he will pay the fine. "My TDR was pending with the civic body and hence I constructed the extra floors," he said.

PCMC officials said the builder cannot sell the extra 36 flats till they are regularized.

Has anybody booked a flat on these floors?

Controversy about changing the course of a nullah and pushing a floodline inside:

Vikram Developers' Midori Towers, at Pimple Nilakh Pune, ran into controversy after Sena corporator Seema Savle produced documents procured under RTI showing that the project was accommodated by pushing floodline inside, changing the course of a nullah.

"The floodline has been changed as the builder is a relative of a former top irrigation official," alleged Savle in a letter to the CM and the Municipal Commissioner.

Gaikwad said no floodline has been changed.

"I had submitted the proposal in 2006-2007 and the floodline was marked in 2009," he said. Regarding the nullah, he said, "The PCMC is doing storm water treatment work and I will pay whatever is needed."
