Hi,
For a vacant approved plot purchased in Chennai, the approach road to reach the plot is, to pass through 30feet road, 24feet road and then through 20feet. All these roads/passages are appearing in the approved layout. When construction plan was applied to CMDA, the officials stated that 20feet road is considered as a passage, but 24feet road has to be handed over through gift deed to corporation by the land owner. This was not done by land owner at the time when this land was divided into plots and approved. Now the land owner is hesitant to reach out to concerned officials (plot approval was done by councillor) to perform this gift deed process. As CMDA not approving on construction plan, is there a way out to move forward to overcome this issue.

Is the land owner legally liable to register a gift deed for the approach road? Since CMDA has approved that plot with approach roads in the diagram, why are they asking for this gift deed from the plot buyer now. They should have mandated this with the land owner when the plot was approved. right? Will this be a stance for dispute against initial land owner/CMDA?
