The Maharashtra Housing and Area Development Authority will not revoke the stop-work order at the Andheri construction site until the builder follows dust-mitigation guidelines. The building has been partially demolished and work stopped midway. MHADA also issued a stop work order to the Sangam Society redevelopment project on Monday for not following dust-mitigation guidelines.
Officials of the MHADA planning department told mid-day, “We have issued a stop work notice to the builder on Monday. Now builders need to prove that all dust-mitigation guidelines are being followed. Till then the stop work order will continue.” Officials added, “Builders need to submit their compliance in writing, then our team will visit the spot and check if all points of dust mitigation are implemented.
