concentrate on regulations without
understanding the reason why they
have been laid. We want people to
understand that the DP 2034 is for the
growth of Mumbai’, said Shii Vidyadhor
Pathak, advisor to MCGM on
Development Plan. “ the Draft DP 2034 is
based on no assumptions, unlike the
previous DP which was based on the
assumption that Mumbai population
can be controlled and FSI con be
Testicted. if FSI (Floor Space Index} is
controled how will Mumbai population
get houses. Hence we have simplified
the Planning, and calculation of FSI. All
‘exemptions in FSI calculations has been
removed and TDR has been simpified”,
he further added
The seminar highlighted various aspects
of Droft DP 2034. The objective of
organizing this seminar was to educate
the public at large and give them
and even
directions about the new DP. Most of

highlighted the aspects against which a
FIL can be filed in future.
Shri Sudhir Ghate said, "! would ike to
congratulate MCGM for drafting DP
2034 and must say that itis very simplified
and easily comprehensible. There are
few suggestions, which | would like to
propose to improve the DP 2034. | feel
the process of taking permissions on
planning & development and
demolition of any buiding should be
kept with the building proposal
department. Likewise responsibility of
transferring of name should be with thecorporation”.
Mr. Ramesh Prabhu, Chairman of
Maharashtra Societies. Welfare
Association (MSWA] played a key role in
moderating the Question Answer session.
duting the pone! discussions. Most
questions related to specific society
queries and technical issues were
moderated by him.
Mr Ramesh Prabhu observed about the
Infrastructure Development, Leisure and
Recreation areas that are being taken
‘way from societies and its impact on
future generations. He also facilitated a
discussion regarding the 10D, CC and
OC issues that the societies are likely to
face in the transition period.
Shri Advi. Ameet Mehta shared, “When
the Draft DP 2034 was released, few
society people had come to us to file a
PIL. | informed them that it couldn't be
done, as it is not a law yet. There were
issues like implementing 4G mobile
fowers on ground, which made it
inaccessible for them. Hence it was very
important that these issues are discussed
and taken care of now. | think Supreme
Engicon has done a great job of
initiating this seminar as this will help in
addressing all issues and ensure that
procedural issues don't arise in future"
Highighting some of the points, which
can lead to a PIL in future Shri Advi,
‘Ameet Mehta said, “High FSI has been
proposed around railway stations. | think
it should be taken care from practical
point of individual station. More clarity
should be given on aspects tke FSI for
old structures, calculation of additional
TDR as there is no clarity on them. Also
the entire DP 2034 is slent on affordable
housing. No jncentive has been
allocated for society development. ts
important that MCGM thinks from the
point of view of redevelopment and not
just Development plan”
“The Development plan focuses on
housing centric approach rather than
‘an amenity centered one. The reduction
in open spaces and proposed roads
running through societies has brought
‘about a stands in the redevelopment
sector of the construction industry. Also
the reservations within the plots are very
confusing ond ambiguous. We urge
Mumbaikors to please give their
suggestions and objections to MCGM
and help Mumbai have the future it
deserves", said Mr. Suresh Sahu, MD,
Supreme Engicons India Pvt. Ltd.
summarizing the Seminar.
Supreme Engicon presented a repot
with important issues raised during the
seminar to MCGM. The issues included
suggestions from dignitaries present and
objections and queries of people
