The state cabinet cleared the redevelopment of Motilal Nagar spread over 50 hectares (ha) in western suburban Goregaon (West). The redevelopment of the colony, which houses around 3,700 families, is expected to generate 33,000 additional homes, the government said. Maharashtra Housing and Area Development Authority (Mhada), which is the nodal agency for the project, got clearance from the state cabinet that granted ‘special project status’ to the redevelopment. Motilal Nagar 1, 2 and 3 were built in 1960 to chiefly house people belonging to the economically weak sections. Though it has 200-sqft houses, many have extended their rooms owing to paucity of space. According to a statement from the chief minister’s office, there are around 5,300 tenements, including 1,600 hutments and slums and 3,700 houses on the 50ha land. The project will be executed by the developer under redevelopment guidelines for 33(5) of the Development Control & Promotion Regulations (DCPR), 2034 on behalf of Mhada. “The tender for the project will be finalised based on the agency that will provide the maximum share of the remaining built-up area (BUA) to Mhada, excluding the rehabilitation portion,” the statement said. Out of the approved area of 1,600 sqft for residential, the developer will bear the cost of construction for 833.80 sqft additional area being given as per the redevelopment guidelines, the statement added. Similarly, for an approved area of 978 sqft for non-residential use, the developer will bear the cost of construction for 502.83 sqft under the said guidelines.
