In a pre-monsoon survey done by the Maharashtra Housing Area Development Authority (MHADA), the number of old and dilapidated buildings in the city for the current year is 78. Addressing the press, Chairman of MHADA Sachin Ahir announced the number of dilapidated buildings in the city. According to Ahir, MHADA has discovered that 78 buildings in the city are dilapidated and the board will send a notice to them so that those people can be moved to safer places. He also said the work of the survey was completed in time and 9 executive engineers and 30 deputy engineers were involved in the work of survey and more than 16,000 buildings in Mumbai city were under the scanner of MHADA. In the new list, there are eight buildings that were in last year's list. The names of the dilapidated buildings were not disclosed and they will be disclosed after giving the list to BMC. MHADA officials also said that buildings become dangerous due to illegal construction of floors on the old structures, extra water tanks that are built illegally by people staying in the building. The MHADA officials also added that if people find that there are illegal constructions taking place in the building then they should directly register a complaint with MHADA or BMC. Stringent action will be taken against all those involved and case will be registered against them. The overall budget to repair and reconstruct the dilapidated building costs between Rs 75 crore to 1000 crore. MHADA officials also announced that shortly there will be a 24-hour emergency number where people can register their complaints about dilapidated buildings. Though MHADA officials have said that people staying in dilapidated buildings will be moved to a transit camp, it has been observed that people keep on staying in the same buildings as they don't have options. The reason why people don't move is because the transit camps are located far way from the original place where people stay. The IIT has also proposed a format trough, which they will find the dilapidated structures in the city.
