CMDA sets up cell to look into NOC delays

The Chennai Metropolitan Development Authority has established a special cell to investigate the various reasons why housing projects are delayed and to grant the "no objection" certificates that contractors are required to obtain.

This cell will have four assistant planners and an administrative office with the rank of district revenue officer as its leader. This will be the sole nodal agency for tracking progress and resolving problems, which will be located in the Egmore CMDA office. Despite the implementation of the single window system, several files have recently been rejected for lacking additional applications and details.

According to CMDA records, 22 of the 47 files that were received online are pending due to a lack of NOCs. 218 legacy files that have been open since April 30, 2022, are also included. Some of these applications date back more than ten years because they lack the necessary departmental or environmental clearances.
