According to sources, the Uttar Pradesh government has decided to take stern action against builders who have failed to pay the rehabilitation advance for their projects. The government has warned that if the builders fail to pay the advance, their land will be confiscated.
The rehabilitation advance is a payment made by builders to the government for the rehabilitation of slum dwellers and other affected people who are displaced due to the construction of housing projects. The payment is usually made in installments, and builders are required to pay a certain percentage of the total cost of the project as rehabilitation advance.
The UP government has taken this decision to ensure that builders do not exploit the system and fail to provide adequate rehabilitation to the affected people. The government wants to ensure that only serious builders who are committed to providing quality housing and rehabilitation participate in these projects.
The decision is likely to affect several builders in the NCR region, who have failed to pay the rehabilitation advance for their projects. The government has warned that it will take strict action against these builders and confiscate their land if they fail to pay the advance.
The move is aimed at promoting transparency and accountability in the real estate sector and ensuring that builders comply with the rules and regulations. The government wants to ensure that the affected people are provided with adequate rehabilitation and that the builders do not exploit the system.
