The first is regarding States that had not followed up on the court\u2019s earlier order. The second directive pertains to States that do not have a solid waste management policy in place.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The ban is likely to hit Mumbai, one of the biggest real estate markets in India and the timely delivery of housing projects. It is also a double whammy for the city as it had faced a similar ban on new construction projects after a high court order in 2016. The ban on new projects was lifted in March 2018 by the SC for six months.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Meanwhile, builders in Chandigarh expressed concern that the ban may drive up property prices in the city. This, according to real estate consultants, could be a double-edged sword.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The state government has now decided to intervene in the matter next week, ahead of the hearing on October 9, to file its affidavit, apologise to the court and get the ban lifted.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>NEW DELHI:\u00a0In an embarrassment to the Maharashtra government the Supreme Court order banning construction activity in States those\u00a0do not have a solid waste management policy should not apply to Maharashtra, said\u00a0Nitin Kareer, the State\u2019s Principal Secretary, Urban Development Department.
