The Mumbai Police has written a strongly worded letter to the state government, complaining that the Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation (BMC) has been dragging its feet on allowing the police to prosecute those booked for illegal construction under the Maharashtra Regional Town Planning (MRTP) Act.
Sources said with over 200 MRTP Act cases registered over the past year-and-a-half still pending with the Mumbai Police, they have demanded that the BMC be directed to promptly take a decision on approvals for prosecution.
