Maharashtra Land Deal Sparks Controversy: Opposition Raises Concerns Over Real Estate Firm's Eligibility
Real Estate Maharashtra:A recent revelation by Senior Maharashtra Congress leader Vijay Wadettiwar has raised eyebrows in the state's political circle. Wadettiwar claimed that the Maharashtra government has agreed to pay a whopping Rs 400 crore to Chadha Developers and Promoters, a real estate firm, despite opposition from its own housing department. This deal has sparked concerns about the firm's eligibility and the government's decision-making process.

According to Wadettiwar, the firm has already received Rs 127 crore from the state government, even though it has not delivered a single home to the beneficiaries of the Pradhan Mantri Awas Yojana scheme. The Maharashtra Housing and Area Development Authority (MHADA) has also raised concerns about the firm's past controversies and eligibility.

The CEO of MHADA informed Wadettiwar that the firm is set to receive Rs 50 crore at each project stage, which has raised suspicions about the entire deal. The opposition is now demanding more scrutiny into the firm's past record and its eligibility for such a massive project.

The Maharashtra government's decision to go ahead with the deal has raised questions about the transparency and accountability of the state's administration. The opposition is now pressing for more information about the deal and the government's decision-making process.

Information Chadha Developers and Promoters is a real estate firm that has been involved in several projects in Maharashtra. However, the firm has faced controversy in the past related to its construction quality and project delays.

The Maharashtra Housing and Area Development Authority (MHADA) is a state-run housing agency responsible for providing affordable housing to the people of Maharashtra.
