Distance of building from boundary wall Distance of building from boundary wall

3 months ago

There is a SRA building being constructed next to our building boundary wall, and the building is less than 1 feet distance from the wall. This building is in Chembur west, Mumbai, India. Is this building construction legal. Are there any rules regarding the distance that needs to be kept. Any website where I can get this information & make a complaint ?

A.Dear Client,
The legality of the SRA (Slum Rehabilitation Authority) building's construction near your boundary wall may be subject to local municipal regulations and building codes. In Mumbai, the Municipal Corporation of Greater Mumbai (MCGM) plays a crucial role in overseeing construction activities. You can check the MCGM's official website or visit their local office to access building regulations and guidelines specific to Chembur West.

The distance between buildings is often regulated to ensure safety, ventilation, and adherence to zoning norms. You may refer to the Development Control Regulations (DCR) or building bylaws applicable in your area. If you find that the construction violates any regulations, you can file a complaint with the local municipal authorities, accompanied by relevant documentation and details.

It's advisable to consult with a local lawyer or approach community forums for guidance on specific property laws and regulations in Chembur West. Taking prompt action by gathering information and reporting concerns to the appropriate authorities will help address the issue effectively.
Thankyou
