Delhi Home Minister Satyendar Jain said online single window system will be created by the MCD for the building clearance following which applicants will not be required to approach different departments to seek their approval.
"An applicant will just have to fill one centralised online form. The application would automatically be forwarded to the agencies concerned like MCD, Delhi Jal Board, fire department etc... The building certificate will be issued in 30 days," Jain said.
The Union Development Ministry had released unified building bylaws for Delhi and the AAP government has now made amendments in the proposed building bylaws aimed at simplifying procedure to get building plan approved.
Jain said residential plots of size up to 105 sq m are not required to obtain sanction of building plans. The owners will only have to submit an undertaking about construction along with requisite fees and other documents to begin construction.
