PIL against Govt,builder association

there r specific cases comes in pil.

i dont find it to be a good case for filing PIL at this stage.

read the act and find out what mechanism govt. has provided in case of violations by the builders and developers....follow that procedure.

in case no such procedure has been provided then write an application/ representation to the concerned department or ministry via Secretary attached to it....it should be a detailed representation.

if no action is taken then file a writ petition.

u must be having good intentions but not a good case at this stage....try to avoid PIL, if the court is not pleased then heavy costs may be imposed which may run into Lacs.

Thanks all for your quick helping hand. Well this is clear for me now.

The actual cause for this amendment is builders often cheat common man in the flat area. They sell builtup where as the flat received by customer is carpet area. In fact in MOFA the GOVT had intention to make builders to disclose carpet area but had mentioned that flats MUST have to sell by carpet only. There was huge debate in assembly, on NGO platforms about huge price hike in flat prices and after all GOVT must have to respect the common man's demand.

Govt. made compulsory for builders to sell the flat on carpet area only so customer will have to pay less, also instructed all corporations,registration authorities to follow this act too. Flat registration will have to do on carpet only so they can pay less.

But while passing this ammendment Govt again made provision which can be misuse by builders. Govt allowed promoters to charge separatly for facilities in ratio to the carpet area of flat.

And again it's become trouble to common man to get his own house.

If any law has been made by Govt, the system must follow it, as the law has been made to protect common man interests.

Here is the ammedment act attached.

Thanks for youe help,

I don't agree with my lawyer friends its easy for any group of lawyers to file a PIL ,data of flats registered on build up area can had from sub registers office thro RTI

So it is in fact good case for filing PIL now. There are ways an means of getting data.

Iam not a lawyer but can write comments like I see from my dear friends.
