Fortaleza Apts residents up in arms

Over 50 residents of Fortaleza Apartments in Kalyani Nagar staged angry protests against the builder, Raviraj-Kothari group, for not providing them the promised amenities including drinking water supply, car parking, children's park and 70 per cent open space.

Sony Mankidy, a resident of the society, who has spearheaded the campaign, pointed out that a children's park had been promised in the brochure, but not developed. "Besides, the 70 per cent open space reserved is being exploited for commercial gain. Even the club house has been outsourced to third party vendors," he alleged.

The residents have come together under the banner of Fortaleza Residents Association. They have written to the Pune municipal commissioner. The association has stressed that the legal possession letter has not been issued despite 90 per cent of the flats being occupied in the completed phase. The association has also lodged a complaint with Promoters and Builders Association of Pune (PBAP).

Raviraj Kothari and Associates director Rohit Kothari, while denying the allegations, said: "We are going ahead according to the agreement of sale and this has been endorsed by the Pune Municipal Corporation. Sony Mankidy is not allowing others to come to me for talks. I am always open for discussion and am working as per the law. We will soon reply to the legal notice served to us by the association. I have all the documents stating the exact position on the baseless allegations being levelled against me. I have done nothing wrong."

I think the builder "thought" that it is responsibility of the people and the PMC to arrange the water facilities. Now guys, get these facts right. PMC MAY permit you to build an appartment, but it is NOT it's responsibility to provide drinking or whatever type of water. People can come from all over India and purchase whatever land they want and build whatever way they want. But it is NOT it's RESPONSIBILITY to provide water. PMC MAY give water as sympathy, not as any duty of any sorts. This has nothing to do about the tax that you pay. Water is a scarce resource and it is not enough for the old city, why would PMC give it to these new migrants?
