“It is clear that direction for compensation to a person surrendering his right of parking does not dispense with the need for providing parking,” said NGT on April 18 to a Mumbai builder who said residents are accepting compensation in lieu of parking space. The National Green Tribunal (NGT) principal bench at New Delhi not accepting builder’s stand of compliance, directed that Maharashtra Pollution Control Board(MPCB) and SEIAA, as statutory regulators, may take measures such as assessment and recovery of compensation for past violations, using coercive powers such as attaching the property and “black listing’’ the developer for not complying with its 2015 order.
