Housing Scam:

 

 

 

 ITANAGAR, Jul 1:

 

In a major relief for those who have invested in the “River View Apartments” in the year 2010, who were later allegedly denied of their rights, the Guwahati High Court on Friday has directed the Department of Urban Development and State Development Agency (SUDA) to repay the respective instalment amount and consideration against advance booking to the beneficiaries with a 14% interest per annum within four months.

 

Earlier in the year 2010, the Secretary Housing , Itanagar introduced a proposal for construction of 1000 flats with affordable homes named “River View Apartments” at Lower Jollang (Paga Taraq), in the Capital Complex, under various categories from “A” to “E” with area (in sq .fit) fixing its basis process.

 

Under the scheme, a total of 73 persons booked their flats under different categories and has been paying the cost of flats on installment basis against each category of flats to the Department of Housing.

 

However, in the year 2015, the authorities allegedly declined to accept further payments/installments from the persons without assigning any reasons.
