The Kamptee MLA said documents, mandatory approvals and compliance with applicable development regulations would be verified before property documents are registered. “Buildings constructed without the necessary permissions, those not complying with development plan regulations and those without the required approvals will face restrictions on registration,” Bawankule said. “The govt would distinguish between constructions that could be regularised after fulfilling the applicable requirements and those that could not receive legal approval,” he said. Bawankule said the stricter scrutiny is intended to ensure that property registration does not facilitate such transactions or expose homebuyers to fraud. He is doing so to become the Prime Minister despite the voters rejecting him,” he said.
The move aims to curb illegal property transfers and prevent buyers from being cheated through the sale of flats in unauthorised buildings. The guardian minister of Nagpur and Amravati districts clarified that buildings whose deficiencies could be rectified and which are eligible for regularisation would be dealt with under the prescribed procedure. However, constructions that could not be legally regularised would face action in accordance with the law. Govt has also received indications of growing agent involvement in unauthorised construction and illegal property transfer transactions. Criticising Rahul Gandhi, Bawankule called the Congress neta’s disrespectful attitude towards the judiciary ‘an attempt to gain cheap publicity’. He also accused Gandhi of disrespecting the Constitution. “Rahul is trying to create an impression that the country is facing an Emergency-like situation.
