Also as said by Vikram Kapur the CREDAI has been in the forefront of implementing sweeping changes for self-regulation. This is a welcome step and that sends the right signal to the entire industry.
@Vivek : The developers are responsible for maintaining the environment and there is a need to realise that any building activity generates some kind of waste. As Construction and demolition waste during the process of construction and also once the building is occupied the occupiers dispose solid and liquid waste in the form of garbage and sewerage.
I think all this calls for urgent action that waste is appropriately accounted for in accordance with the Municipal Corporation’s solid waste regulations so that free market forces can ensure that waste is appropriately used and recycled.
@Shyam Sundar : Yes even I heard that the Chennai Corporation measures to go online for the submission of building plans and tracking down the status have yielded the desired results. I think around 15,000 applications have been received by the Corporation for various types of approvals which was said by Vikram Kapur.
Hey guys In the past two years the Corporation has issued stop-work notices to 1174 buildings and demolition notice to 521 buildings and lock-and-seal for 104 buildings.
