West Bengal Housing Board

Published by Virtual India Index on June 11, 2008 – 8:00 am164 Comments

The Bengali land of India, West Bengal had its housing board authority established in the year 1999. It was named as West Bengal housing development board. Though it was launched a bit late, the housing board has come up with some excellent solutions to the homeless living in the state. The transparency and the dedication of the West Bengal housing board made it a very popular government governing body in such less time. As it is known to every one that West Bengal’s capital city, Kolkata (formerly known as Calcutta) is the most populous metropolitan city of India. The city is home for many poor and rich. Less known fact is that majority of the poor population are not possessing a shelter to live in. These reasons have pushed west Bengal government to bring out the housing board. Unlike other states, the housing board of west Bengal from the inception have been concentrating on providing shelter to the weaker sections which is a welcomed prospect. The housing board is sub divided in to two streams where one stream takes care of urban housing requirements and the other stream takes care of Rural housing requirements which is also known as Panchayat and rural development department.

Recently, the housing board of Bengal has come up with a huge venture slated to take shape in the state’s capital city, Kolkata. This new project is planned in an area of 3075 hectares and is estimated to provide shelter i.e. houses for around 0.75 million which is a huge number. The other goodies are that the project is not only hub for residential sectors but is home for many corporate and commercial offices. The residential houses are of three categories based on the budget which were divided in the following manner: LIG, MIG and HIG flats and houses. To provide transport facilities for these township residents, housing board has taken up burden of forcing the government to take the initiative. The housing board has always paid lot of concern to the consumer’s interest and benefit.

  • BEWARE OF MERLIN PROJECTS LTD, THE JOINT VENTURE PARTNER OF WEST BENGAL HOUSING DEVELOPMENT BOARD.

    SUSHIL MOHTA OF MERLIN PROJECTS LTD BRINGS SHAME TO THE ENTIRE BUILDER’S COMMUNITY IN INDIA BY BREACHING THE PRIVACY RIGHTS OF A BENGALI HOUSEWIFE IN ORDER TO BLACKMAIL HER FAMILY.

    My client is a 57 years old housewife. Her only son is a foreign qualified professional who is unfortunately undergoing treatment for a psychological illness (Schizo Affective Disorder).

    My client’s husband had obtained a favourable order from the State Consumer Disputes Redressal Commission, West Bengal in connection with a property purchased by him from the above Builder. Copy of the Order and details of the case can be viewed at:
    http://sites.google.com/site/merlinprojectsunionbanksite/.

    However, the Builder did not execute the Order and my client’s husband was constrained to file two criminal cases U/S: 156(3) Cr.P.C against the Builder & others for offences committed U/S: 420/427/406/120B which are pending with the Police for over 2 years thanks to the money power & political influence of the Builder.

    However, on strong follow up by my client’s husband with judicial authorities, the above cases are coming up for trial shortly.

    In view of this development, the Builder apprehending arrest started trying to blackmail my client & her son so that the cases against the Builder were withdrawn by my client’s husband.

    Initially, the Builder threatened my client’s husband through his goons and then directly by Police officials but this did not deter my client’s husband from seeking due justice through proper channels.

    Being unable to subjugate my client’s husband by above means the Builder, Mr. Sushil Mohta sent an e-mail providing the personal & financial information about my client & her son to his relative Mr. Navneet Baheti, a former employee of ICICI Bank and now working as a Real Estate Agent under the name of B’Squarre Services, Hyderabad.

    In the above e-mail, Mr. Sushil Mohta instructed Mr. Navneet Baheti to use the said personal & financial details of my client and her son to steal the highly confidential Credit Information Reports of my client and her son from the Credit Information Bureau of India.

    Under instructions from Sushil Mohta, Navneet Baheti by impersonating as an ICICI Bank official forged a false “Credit Information Request Form” in the name of ICICI Bank and by passing off the same as genuine he illegally obtained the said reports and sent these to his accomplice Mr. Sushil Mohta.

    After falling sick, my client’s son had arranged restructuring of his educational loan with the financing Bank but the same was being shown as outstanding in the CIBIL Report.

    The Builder then mentioned to my client’s son that he had high level connections with Banks & Police Officials which he would use to have my client’s son arrested & tortured by the Police for defaulting on loan payments.

    My client’s son being in an irrational frame of mind due to his illness believed the Builder and attempted to commit suicide. He is still in a state of deep depression.

    The exchange of e-mails on all the points mentioned above were intercepted and found to be routed through the server of Merlin Projects Ltd as confirmed by a renowned cyber crime tracking agency.

    My client becoming highly apprehensive about her son’s mental health initially directed the undersigned to plead with the Builder to stop harassing her son as this could drive him to commit suicide but when no action was taken either by the Builder or the Police, she filed a complaint U/S: 156(3) Cr.P.C against the Builder.

    After hearing the complaint and thoroughly examining the supporting evidence, the Additional Chief Judicial Magistrate, Alipore Court, directed the Police to record an FIR against the Builder for offences punishable U/S: 471/465/468/ 506/384 IPC & U/S: 66A/66B/66C/72/72A of the Information Technology Act.

    Specific charges filed against the accused persons as incorporated in the FIR recorded by the Police include:

    (a) Breach of privacy & confidentiality of my client & her son with criminal intent;
    (b) Sending offensive messages by e-mail to malign the character of my client & her son;
    (c) Extortion, blackmail & criminal intimidation;
    (d) Committing forgery with intent to cheat;
    (e) Accessing confidential information by impersonation/identity theft;
    (f) Dishonestly receiving stolen goods;
    (g) Mentally torturing my client’s only son who is suffering from a psychological illness thereby causing serious harm to his mental health and instigating him to commit suicide.

    One fails to understand how an unscrupulous criminal like Merlin Projects Ltd is allowed to survive in a decent society and hold a responsible position in The Confederation of Real Estate Developers’ Associations of India CREDAI which proclaims its credo as :-

    “To perpetuate an ethical code of conduct, which is self-imposed & mandatory for all the member developers /builder of CREDAI to maintain integrity & transparency in the profession of real estate development”.
