In a significant development, the Uttar Pradesh Real Estate Regulatory Authority (UP-RERA) has implemented revisions to the timeframes for document submission by parties involved in legal proceedings. Effective immediately, all concerned parties are required to upload pertinent documents, objections, or counter-objections at least 48 hours prior to the scheduled hearing before the RERA benches.
This decision, taken by UP-RERA, comes as part of its ongoing efforts to streamline and expedite the adjudication process within the real estate sector. By mandating the closure of the document submission feature two days ahead of the hearings, UP-RERA aims to afford ample time for thorough case file review by the respective RERA benches.
Sanjay Bhoosreddy, the Chairman of UP-RERA, underscored the authority's commitment to conducting complaint hearings via e-courts, allowing virtual participation from all parties involved. Through the online platform accessible via their dashboards, parties are required to submit their written statements and the accompanying documentation.
However, challenges have arisen due to instances of some parties submitting documents, objections, or counter-objections late, occasionally even at the commencement of the hearing itself. This practice has resulted in inadequate time for the opposing party to formulate a comprehensive response and prepare their case in advance. Moreover, RERA benches have faced difficulties in conducting thorough case reviews, often necessitating adjournments to accommodate responses from the opposing party.
Bhoosreddy emphasized that such delays undermine the primary objective of RERA, which is to ensure the swift resolution of the disputes and deliver justice to the aggrieved parties within the real estate sector in UP.
The new regulations introduced by UP-RERA are intended to address these challenges by enforcing stricter deadlines for document submission. It is anticipated that these proactive measures will contribute to the expeditious resolution of complaints and enhance the overall efficiency of the RERA framework in Uttar Pradesh.
