Express News Service
New Delhi, December 20: The MCD will introduce a self-assessment scheme
by next week to fast track the regularisation of unauthorised
construction as per the buildings norms amended by the Urban Development
Ministry in September.
As per the scheme, property owners trying to get illegal portions of
their buildings regularised according to the September 20 amendments to
building bylaws will now have to submit a building plan certified by a
registered architect and an affidavit with the civic body promising to
comply with the new norms. The architects too will have to submit
undertakings of compliance.
The owners will be allowed two months to pull down the unauthorised part
voluntarily instead of the MCD having to take any action against the
property.
