STT: Cansaulim Panchayat revoked construction license after more than 2 years when the mega-project is almost completed
One has to be very careful before parting with your hard earned money.. Merely obtaining construction licence (may be by whatever means) may not be safe or guaranteed any longer as licenses issued earlier can be revoked latter on say even after several years. Legal Agreement of sale should have all clauses or conditions to protect the buyers interests e.g. refund of money with interest etc should the builder fails to handover the possession of the flat/Apt etc for whatever reasons (except by the act of god). “The Village Panchayat vide their letter dated 07.05.2010 called for fresh plans from the builder. However the builder Aboo Bakar Shaikh alias Babloo of Babloo Constructions did not comply with the letter and the Village Panchayat body in their meeting dt: 22.05.2010 resolved to issue stop work order to the construction. However the then Sarpanch Jose Manuel Fernandes for reasons best known to him did not serve the notice to the builder and kept the Panchayat body in the dark about this. It was very apparent that the then Sarpanch and certain Panchayat members were working in collusion with the builder.” The status of the project – As of July 2010 and April 2012 http://www.flickr.com/photos/joegoaukextra3/7126768929/sizes/l/in/photostream/ more details here (prices, amenities etc ) Booking started early 2010 http://www.flickr.com/photos/joegoaukextra3/7126768929/in/photostream This may not be the only case in Goa. ‘Authenticity ‘ of the so called construction licence issued by local bodies is also questionable. Where no licence should have been issued without checking the details including inspections by the TCP officers, Panchayat Secretary, Health officer, PWD officer etc. At the most, the Panchayat may refund the licence fees say Rs.5000 for a house or a bungalow but the whole process of obtaining license including visits and bribes to TCP, PWD, PHC, Panchayat (incl. Secretary) is worth just that? We all know what it takes to obtain a construction license What about the people’s money? Whose fault it is, anyway? Definitely, not just the builder.
