SRA Developer - query towards Building proposal committee of Bombay Muncipal Corporation

[Vincent_sq]

Thanks for welcoming me,
I have a query regarding RTI ...I am a secretary of a newly formed cooperative housing society built under a SRA Plan and we havent received all the relevent documents from our developer. All we have received is
* Partial Occupation Certificate as the whole complex isnt built yet...part of it is constructed and the rest of the wings are yet to come

* Society is formed and Registered
But we havent really received any detailed plans yet for our building like
* Plumbing plan
* Electrical plan
* Civil drawings
* Sewage / drainage plans
* Conveyance Deed ( builder plans to give a amlgamated conveyance deed once the entire project is complete)

Also the builder has constructed another wing touching ours.....this wasnt in the plan he had presented. I have checked the SRA website and since the layout is availaible there, the next wing constructed doesnt seem to be touching ours in the SRA layout. Also there isnt enough parking space for vehicles even for half the residents here. Green space in the original plans arent seen.
Further he has drilled a borehole for water along side & beneath our structure and we had asked him for a structural audit report for long term effect towards our building structure. but the builder hasnt responded.
Most of the above mentioned issues have been discussed with the Developer but he is elusive and uninterested. He has good political connection so doesnt seem to be bothered.
So we were thinking of approaching the Brihanmumbai Muncipal Corporation, building proposal committee to get all the info needed using the RTI route.

Seek your advice on this....How do i go about it? Are there any RTI activist in Mumbai you could link me to. Bettar still if you could guide me as to where will i get the RTI form and how do i go about framing the question for the same.

Thanks in advance for all your help.

As you have told that the Bldg is under SRA project, BMC bldg proposal department will not be helpful.
All the matter pertaining to your bldg will be with SRA department 5th floor Mahada Office.
It will be better to get all the information regarding project. Under RTI take certified copies of all the plans i.e, Block Plan etc..
Take the certified copy of partial O.C. C.C and NOC if any. ask for the file inspection pertaining to your project.

Since you are secretary my suggestion don't file all the application from your name distribute the responsibility amoung other members, because what happen it is usually found that this builder/ politician try to corner a person if found coming in their way.

In our case we have filed a three application from three different peoples name.

After getting entire information from SRA write a formal complaint letter to SRA regarding discripencies found in the construction. Mark a copy of the same to the Housing depatment Govt. of Maharashtra.
They are bound to give you reply if you dont receive reply within 60 days file and RTI application asking for the reply.

All the Best
