The good news — the new chairman of MahaRERA, Ajoy Mehta, cleared 107 cases in a single day (on Monday). A number of cases were put back to the complainant’s court, with the option of conciliation with the builder.

The bad news — litigants and lawyers are upset that their cases were set aside for conciliation without them even being informed about the same. Now, MahaRERA expects them to hold negotiations again, where the developer is represented by lawyers, and litigants’ lawyers are not allowed to participate.
