Bombay high court raps people who buy homes without ground checks

孟买高等法院指责人们购买违建房产

MUMBAI: Slamming buyers who book flats in buildings constructed on spaces reserved for public amenities, and developers, the Bombay high court said, "people who buy homes without checking the development plan, it is their funeral".

孟买：孟买高等法院抨击在公共预留地上建公寓的开发商，提醒购房者，称：“如果不加以核实就买下去，那就是自掘坟墓”

The HC was hearing petitions by occupants of 20 Virar buildings that have come up on plots meant for a road and a playground. The petitioners have challenged the Vasai-Virar Municipal Corporation (VVMC)'s notices to raze their buildings at Vavtewadi in Phoolpada.

孟买高等法院听取了这20座楼的购房者递交的请愿书，这些建筑地块原本是用来修建公路和运动场的。请愿者对Vasai-Virar市政公司(VVMC)的通知提出质疑，该通知要求拆除这些楼房。

The occupants' advocates argued on April 9 that their clients bought the flats with registered agreements, they had permissions, banks granted them loans and property tax was recovered from them. But a bench of Justice Satyaranjan Dharmadhikari and Justice Burgess Colabawalla said they won't tolerate any construction or unauthorised activity at the site meant for a road and playground. They said occupants will have to make sacrifices. "You can't be selfish. We will not put you on road," said Justice Dharmadhikari, adding, "If a building is affecting DP that part will be slashed and cut."

4月9日，购房者的辩护律师辩称，他们的委托人购买这些公寓时签署了注册协议，他们拥有许可，银行向他们发放了贷款，并且缴纳了房产税。但是法官Satyaranjan Dharmadhikari和Burgess Colabawalla表示，他们不会允许在道路及运动场用地上建房或进行任何未经授权的开发。他们表示，购房者将不得不做出牺牲。“你们不能太自私。我们不会让你们占道 。如果一栋建筑影响到道路及其他公共设施，那将予以拆除。”法官Dharmadhikari补充说

The bench has sought an undertaking from the developers-cum-landowners assuring that they will get the buildings vacated and rehabilitate occupants with families "in your property and not anybody's property within a timeframe". "If you don't do this, they will come with bulldozers and demolish all of them... We'll ensure amenities of the public come to the public. Nobody will even get an opportunity to dig their dirty nose in this," Justice Dharmadhikari warned. An advocate for landowners, 27 of them and few of whom are also developers, said he will file an undertaking on behalf of 25 persons. "In the event this project is not implemented within time schedule prescribed by this court, then, all consequences shall ensue, in the sense buildings which have come up can then be demolished to make DP Road and playground," said the bench. The matter will be heard on Monday.

法院已让开发商兼土地所有者作出承诺，保证他们将在一定期限内将把这些建筑腾空，并让住户恢复正常生活。法官Dharmadhikari警告称：“如果你们做不到，我们就会用推土机把楼房全部推倒。我们将确保公共设施向公众开放。”土地所有者（其中27人同时也是开发商）的辩护律师表示，他将代表25人提交一份承诺书。法官表示：“如果该项目未能在法院规定的时间内拆除，已建好的筑物将被拆除，用来修建道路和运动场。”该案件将在星期一审理。

真是丢人…高等法院根本不在乎是谁签发了建筑许可证。在施工过程中他们不审查，等建好了又来指责购房者。无耻的法官。

What a shame...Instead of rap the municipal corporation as to where was it when the buildings were being built, they are asking questions of the common man...No one wants to own up responsibility

普通购房者没有核查相关文件的意识。贷款人及其法律团队应负责核查，并确认合法性，才能发放贷款。

Shame on giving such Judgement. how will a common man know about such things also many must have take with home loans. did the banks check the legal procedure before giving Home loan. Are the builders told to repay. Will the Govt official be help Responsible?.... NO only common man will have to suffer.

做出这样的判决是可耻的。一个普通人怎么会知道那么多呢?很多人都贷款买房，在发房贷款前，银行是否核查了相关法律文件?建筑商能退房款吗？政府官员会负责吗?只有普通老百姓遭央。

The buyer has to be more vigilant when investing their life savings in property. They should also check the Development plan and 7/12 to see that the land is not encumbered and is in the name of the builders or their partners before paying the down payment.

Buider& bank sanctionig loans are also responsible,pvt banks are running after prospective borrowers & sanction loan without checking papers.

municipal officers should be dusmissed & architect who prepared plan must also be punished.

Gang of Builder,architect ,municipal officers& bank officers are responsible

建筑商和批准贷款的银行也有责任，银行正在挖掘潜在借款人，并在没有核查文件的情况下批准贷款。市政官员应该除名，制定规划的建筑师也必须受到惩罚。施工人员、建筑师、市政人员、银行人员都要负责。

what sacrifice does the judge mean. It is not one or 2 rupees. It is lakhs of rupees. Imagine the plight of middle class people who would have applied for bank loan to buy house. Did the HC ask questions to municipality for giving permission to construct houses and collect property tax. This is how corruption is allowed to grow right from high courts. Here the responsibility has to be fixed on the govt officials who gave approval to build houses in development lands. The occupants should definitely go to Supreme court for this

法官说“牺牲”是什么意思，这不是1或2卢比，而是几十万卢比。想象一下中产阶级的困境，他们申请了银行贷款买房。在这方面，责任必须由批准建房的政府官员承担。购房者应该上述到最高法院。

Looks like honourable court doesn''t even understand that a lot of people in this country don''t understand legal technicalities. Secondly, was VVMC slee when buildings were coming up? Justice Dharmadhikari needs to understand that not all people are intelligent as him. Pathetic judiciary....

instead of shouting a buyers, the court should focus more in looking into why illegal construction happen in the first place.. Our system wether court or trade practices need to work more effectively and eradicate corruption. in Mumbai a 10 story building was brought up just in a matter of weeks If I remember correctly that too next to a police station some time in past.

与其指责购房者，高等法院应更多地关注为何会出现违章建筑。我们应该根除腐败。如果我没记错的话，孟买在几周内就建起了一座10层楼高的大楼，就在警察局旁边。
