On Tuesday, Maharashtra Housing and Regional Development Authority (MHADA) Siddharth Nagar (Patra chawl) Goregaon Redevelopment Project Construction of Pending Flats will be inaugurated by Maharashtra Chief Minister Uddhav Thackeray at 5 pm at Prabodhan Kridabhavan, Goregaon West.

The issue of construction of pending flats of 672 original tenants of Siddharth Nagar Co-operative Housing Society (Patra chawl) redevelopment project on MHADA land at Goregaon West, Mumbai will be solved through this. 672 tenants will get 650 sq. ft. Carpet area flats through redevelopment project.

MHADA itself is working on this entire project as a developer for the redevelopment of Patra Chawl which is spread on 47 acres of land.

Earlier a tripartite agreement was signed between Guruashish Construction Pvt. Ltd. and MHADA. However, the developer delayed the redevelopment project for many years and due to non-payment of rent by the developer to the residents, MHADA issued a termination notice to the concerned developer and organization on 12.01.2018.

The developer sold the sale share of this project to 9 developers without the permission of MHADA, so these 9 developers filed suit in the Hon’ble High Court. Due to various such incidents, the redevelopment project has been stalled for the last several years.
