Meanwhile, MHADA has also announced that it has decided to forego the last EMI of beneficiaries of its affordable housing scheme in Kalyan in Thane district.

These houses are located in Khoni and Shirdhon and 2000-odd beneficiaries were facing financial problems due to delay in getting possession caused primarily by the coronavirus-induced lockdown as well as other reasons, news agency PTI reported.

The decision will allow these beneficiaries to cumulatively save Rs 32 crore.

As per the information available on its website, MHADA has over seven lakh houses across the state of Maharashtra, including two lakh alone in Mumbai.
