Amicus curiae will submit report to the SC on Wednesday; 4 apartment complexes were demolished on January 11 and 12 in 2020 for violating CRZ-2 norms
FIVE years after four apartment complexes in Maradu were razed, displacing 300 flat owners, the Kerala Coastal Zone Management Authority (KCZMA) has stated in a report submitted to the Supreme Court-appointed amicus curiae that it is feasible to construct new buildings at the same sites.
The amicus curiae, Gourav Agarwal, will submit the report to the Supreme Court on Wednesday.
Four waterfront apartment complexes - Holy Faith H2O (19-storey building with 91 apartments), Alfa Serene (17-storey building with 67 apartments), Jain Coral Cove (17-storey building with 128 apartments), and Golden Kayaloram (17-storey building with 40 apartments) - were demolished on January 11 and 12 in 2020 following a Supreme Court order for violation of Coastal Regulation Zone (CRZ)-2 norms.
According to the KCZMA report, which was submitted to the amicus curiae on Monday, the entire 1,859 square metre area where the Golden Kayaloram once stood is now feasible for construction under CRZ-2.
