The Maharashtra government, which has decided to regularise unauthorised constructions till December 2015 on a mass scale in urban belts, said criminal cases will be filed against builders responsible for illegalities.
Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis told the Legislative Assembly that criminal cases will be filed against builders who have undertaken illegal construction.
“Action will also be taken against guilty officials,” Fadnavis said, while replying to a discussion on a calling attention notice.
The policy to regularise unauthorised constructions is applicable to entire state and not just in Thane and Navi Mumbai, he said.
