The portal grants regularisation rights to residents in 1,511 identified colonies if the residents apply for it after obtaining an authorisation slip through the Pradhan Mantri Unauthorised Colonies in Delhi Awas Adhikar Yojana (PM-UDAY).<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"7\"\/>Despite nearly 40,000 people checking the website, only 45 eligible applications have been received so far, officials said.<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"11\"\/>Several applicants who don\u2019t have authorisation slips of PM-UDAY are diverted to Delhi govt\u2019s site.<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"13\"\/>If the existing construction exceeds permitted FAR limits, penal FAR charges equivalent to three times the normal additional FAR charges will be levied. MCD has suggested making this a one-time charge.<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"15\"\/>\u201cA major deterrent in obtaining the ownership rights is the financial burden associated with it. The fee will be in lakhs (around Rs 3-4 lakh) and as a result, many property owners won\u2019t come forward for secure regularisation documents through the scheme,\u201d an official said.<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"18\"\/>Another factor is the absence of any deadline for registration. \u201cWhether someone applies after six months or seven months, there is no difference because no cut-off date has been prescribed. There is virtually no incentive to apply immediately and no penalty for delay. One can get a bank loan after regularisation with no fear of demolition, but then we have to understand that these are unplanned areas where no property is regularised and people are managing sale or purchase with GPA etc.<!-- -->,\u201d an official said.<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"22\"\/>Applicants are required to pay Rs 20 plus GST for resident registration, Rs 75 plus GST for filing the application form, and Rs 100 per document plus GST for preparation and notarisation of documents. <span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"24\"\/>MCD officials said that since the Unified Building Bye-Laws, 2016, fall under the jurisdiction of the DDA, so it can introduce amendments or policy changes to encourage registration.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p><br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/timesofindia.indiatimes.com\/city\/delhi\/mcd-seeks-reforms-in-regularisation-as-poor-response-hampers-drive\/articleshow\/131726099.cms\">Source link <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>New Delhi: MCD has approached Delhi Development Authority and Delhi govt seeking policy reforms to make the Swagam regularisation scheme attractive to residents of unauthorised colonies after a tepid response to its effort.The portal was launched by MCD on April 24 to help residents of unauthorised colonies regularise their properties, even if they do not [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":1874,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[150],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-21680","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-delhi"],"amp_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/banitoday.com\/hi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/21680","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/banitoday.com\/hi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/banitoday.com\/hi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/banitoday.com\/hi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/banitoday.com\/hi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=21680"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/banitoday.com\/hi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/21680\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/banitoday.com\/hi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/1874"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/banitoday.com\/hi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=21680"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/banitoday.com\/hi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=21680"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/banitoday.com\/hi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=21680"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
