MMRDA cracks whip on illegal structures in its planning zones
Mumbai: The Mumbai Metropolitan Region Development Authority (MMRDA) has armed its officials with legal powers to act against unauthorised constructions across areas where it functions as the special planning authority, marking a renewed crackdown on violations. Acting under Section 53 of the Maharashtra Regional and Town Planning (MRTP) Act, 1966, MMRDA's designated officers can now initiate timely legal action to curb the mushrooming of illegal buildings in notified zones. The move, officials said, is aimed at reinforcing planned and sustainable urban growth in the Mumbai Metropolitan Region (MMR), where rapid development often outpaced regulatory oversight. MMRDA's planning jurisdiction includes Ambernath-Kulgaon-Badlapur, Bhiwandi surrounding areas, Kalyan Growth Centre, Bandra-Kurla Complex, Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj International Airport notified area, Oshiwara District Centre, Wadala notified area, and parts of Palghar and Alibaug.

"The objective is not just demolition but to send a clear message that unauthorised construction will not be tolerated," said a senior MMRDA official. "This step will also protect homebuyers from being misled by unscrupulous developers." Until final development plans are approved, powers to regulate development in the extended areas of Palghar and Alibaug will remain with the respective district collectors, in line with govt directions. The enforcement push is being led by the MMRDA metropolitan commissioner, who has instructed officers to act swiftly but fairly. "Due process must be followed while taking down illegal structures. This is not a demolition drive, it's a discipline drive," said an MMRDA official. To standardise enforcement, MMRDA has introduced a Standard Operating Procedure (SOP) that outlines judicially sound guidelines for issuing notices, conducting hearings, and facilitating appeals. The SOP is aimed at ensuring transparency, accountability, and protecting the rights of all stakeholders involved. Stay updated with the latest local news from your city on Times of India (TOI).
