This is a representative image NAVI MUMBAI: A 29-year-old woman driving a high-end car to reach Ulwe, took the road leading to Belapur creek jetty instead of driving over the bridge.

The woman, Shweta Sharma, a Kharghar resident , was on her way to Ulwe to a friend's residence. It was raining heavily and it was pitch dark when the woman took a left turn near NMMC headquarters.

Belapur to get 500-bed super specialty hosp post CRZ nod
Navi Mumbai: The state govt approved construction of a 500-bed super-specialty hospital in Belapur to be built in phases. The Navi Mumbai Municipal Corporation (NMMC) received directives to commence this significant project, which aims to enhance public healthcare services in Navi Mumbai. NMMC Commissioner Kailas Shinde confirmed obtaining essential permissions, including environment clearance and new development plan approval. The initial phase involves creating a 100-bed facility at a cost of Rs 250 crore. A previous tender process was suspended due to a High Court PIL regarding environment clearance and development plan approval issues. With current govt authorisation, NMMC plans to present the acquired permissions to the court to proceed with the public hospital construction. "The tender validity was extended and opening of the bidding will commence shortly. The govt urged swift construction initiation for public benefit," Shinde stated. "The comprehensive project, valued at Rs 800 crore, encompasses a medical college and super-specialty hospital with 500 beds. Phase one involves establishing a 100-bed super-specialty hospital at Rs 250 crore. Phase two, budgeted at Rs 550 crore, includes medical college construction and hospital expansion from 100 to 500 beds," explained Belapur MLA Manda Mhatre, who communicated with the chief minister for approval.

Additionally, NMMC's new draft Development Plan (DP) awaited state approval. "We secured both DP approval and CRZ clearance, clearing construction obstacles," confirmed Shinde. A civic official noted that while the plot was previously designated as a playground in the old DP, NMMC's new DP redesignated it for healthcare facilities. Phase one completion is estimated at 3-4 years. Cidco allocated approximately 32,000 square metres at plot 4, sector 15A, adjacent to civic headquarters in Belapur, for the medical college and super-specialty hospital. NMMC paid Rs 88 crore to Cidco for the land. "The development will utilise 22,000 square metres beyond CRZ restrictions, with approval secured. The remaining 10,000 square metres under CRZ remains non-developable," NMMC clarified. "The pandemic highlighted the necessity for public healthcare facilities when Covid patients struggled to access affordable treatment and specialist care," Mhatre noted. Cidco sources indicate the plot's designation in NMMC's draft DP as a park could be modified for healthcare purposes. However, local residents who use the space as a recreational area expressed opposition.

NMMC urges residents of buildings without occupancy certificates to apply
Navi Mumbai: In a significant revelation, 2,111 buildings within the Navi Mumbai Municipal Corporation (NMMC) jurisdiction lack mandatory occupancy certificates. Following the Bombay high court's directives on a Public Interest Litigation and a subsequent Writ Petition, NMMC created a detailed catalogue of non-compliant buildings after an extensive survey. Tired of too many ads? go ad free now This information is accessible on and at all eight ward offices, listing structures with construction commencement certificates but without occupancy certificates. NMMC urged occupants to secure OCs promptly to prevent enforcement actions. Following the high court's directive dated Oct 25, 2024, authorities conducted comprehensive surveys to identify such buildings operating without occupancy certificates despite having construction commencement approvals. The NMMC has now published details of properties in their records that are operational without the necessary occupancy certificates, despite possessing construction commencement authorisations. The civic body highlighted that these buildings and societies are operating in violation of established protocols. This announcement serves as a crucial notice to inhabitants and proprietors of the 2,111 identified properties. It stresses that acquiring an occupancy certificate is mandatory for all buildings within NMMC boundaries before occupation. "The concerned parties are advised to submit their applications seeking occupancy certificates to the Town Planning Department promptly. The civic administration hereby notifies that failure to comply will result in enforcement actions under the Maharashtra Regional Planning and Town Planning Act, 1966, implemented through the designated officer," said NMMC Commissioner and Administrator Kailas Shinde. Tired of too many ads? go ad free now The municipal authority strongly encourages all involved parties to fulfil this regulatory requirement to ensure adherence to building safety and occupancy norms. This initiative aims to maintain proper records and compliance with building regulations within the municipal limits. "This is a sheer lapse on the part of the civic administration and the civic body has to fix the responsibility on the ward officers of respective wards for dereliction of duties," said an alert resident, Sameer Tupe.
