Government Expedites Redevelopment of Unsafe Buildings in Navi Mumbai
The Maharashtra government has made a policy decision to accelerate the redevelopment of old and unsafe residential buildings in Navi Mumbai under the Urban Renewal Scheme (URS). This clarification addresses long-standing issues that had stalled several projects, particularly in areas like Vashi Sector 9. The decision allows for mixed residential-commercial redevelopment, relaxes parking norms in certain cases, and enables phased provision of open spaces.
