TCP to accept construction of buildings up to 500 Sq mts through registered architect: Sukhu
To overcome the frequent practice of red tape in passing of residential maps by the Town and Country Planning Department State government has launched a new system.
Chief Minister Thakur Sukhvinder Singh Sukhu today launched the Auto-DCR (Developments Control Regulation) Building Permission System that will automate the process of building plan scrutiny and approval of blueprints and designs of the buildings up to 500 sw meter size plots.
The Chief Minister said that it will not only ensure transparency but also accountability in the building permit process and approval of building maps.
Another feature will be that the registered architect is authorized to give permission and approval for the construction of residential accommodation in an area of up to 500 Sq. feet.
This will provide much relief to the people as they will not have to go to the office of TCP for approvals of residential accommodation stated Mr. Sukhu.
He said that from today onwards, the applicants can apply on the online DCR system within all the planning areas under Town and Country Planning (TCP) on http://www.hptcp.hp.gov.in and in six Urban Local Bodies, viz: MC, Shimla, Solan, Baddi-Barotiwala-Nalagarh Development Authority (BBNDA), Municipal Council Theog and Baddi and Nagar panchayat Arki can apply online on the portal.
The Chief Minister said that this will further help to streamline the building permit process and reduce the time and effort required for the planned scrutiny and approval.
