Singhvi in his opinion to MCHI had stated, "After theissuance of the ordinance dated September 21, 2010, StateGovernment or the Planning Authority can levy premium forgrant 0.33 FSI."

The Municipal Corporation of Greater Mumbai (MCGM) andthe State Government are losing Rs 10-crore per day due tonon-implementation of this scheme.

Mantri has requested the Chief Minister to call anurgent meeting of the Principal Secretary, Urban Development,Municipal Commissioner and the MCHI to resolve the issue.
