PETITION FOR UNIFORM BUILDER BUYER AGREEMENT
PETITION FOR UNIFORM BUILDER BUYER AGREEMENT
5TH DECEMBER, 2020
The petition filed before the Supreme Court with the prayer to direct the Central Government to implement a uniform builder-buyer agreement to ensure fairness and transparency, and protect the rights and interests of the buyers, in the ambit of the RERA Act along with Articles 14 and 21 of the Constitution of India. The objective to file the Petition is to reduce cheating, fraud and forgery, control deliberate delays, restrain builders from dishonestly misappropriating buyers’ money, and indulging in arbitrary unfair restrictive trade practices.
The petitioner realised that the amenities guaranteed by the promoter and landowner in the brochure and advertisements are totally different from the authorities' approval. While the amenities claimed in the brochure are not sanctioned by the Bhruhat Bengaluru Mahanagara Palike (BBMP), the facilities like play area, sewage treatment plant, transformer, basketball court, badminton court, and many other infrastructures are not as per the approved plan too.
