Uddhav seeks Defence nod to redevelop Colaba transit bldgs

Chief Minister Uddhav Thackeray has written to Union defence Minister Rajnath Singh, seeking No Objection Certificate (NOC) for accommodating tenants on the restricted floors of the transit camps constructed in Colaba. The CM also sought redevelopment permission for dilapidated transit camps at Cuffe Parade. A copy of the said letter, which was written in February, is with the Free Press Journal.

Mumbai Building Repairs and Reconstruction Board (MBRRB) chairman Vinod Ghosalkar said, "The CM has written to Union minister since the matter falls in the ambit of defence. As the Occupation Certificate (OC), granted to the existing two transit buildings g+7 and g+6 in Colaba, is only up to three floors whereas the above floors are unoccupied. Since the board doesn't has enough transit accommodation, it has proposed to do redevelopment, while applying for the OC clearance for the restricted floors."
