MUMBAI: The Bombay High Court has granted an additional three weeks for residents of the top 18 floors of the 34-storey Tardeo tower to vacate their homes.
On August 1, the Supreme Court upheld the High Court’s ruling, which instructed the residents to vacate the floors without an occupancy certificate. The initial deadline was set for August 2.
The Supreme Court indicated that residents could apply for an extension through the High Court. They requested four weeks, citing the need for alternate housing for their school-going children.
The High Court granted the extension, noting it as a ‘mercy plea,’ and required an undertaking in two days to comply with the new deadline. Additionally, the court directed the BMC to take action if the undertaking was not followed.
