HC issues notice to Lodha Ventures in PIL over ‘One Goa’ project

The Hindu  

A Public Interest Litigation petition filed in the Bombay High Court Bench in Goa has alleged irregularities in One Goa, a plotted real estate development project promoted by The House of Abhinandan Lodha. The petition accuses the company of benefiting from policy violations, backdoor regulatory clearances, and a questionable land deal with Goa’s Town and Country Planning Minister Vishwajit Rane. Refuting the allegations in the PIL, a spokesperson of Lodha Ventures, the holding company of the House of Abhinandan Lodha, said: “We remain fully committed to upholding the highest standards of compliance with all statutory approvals and legal processes. Our ongoing development is being carried out in accordance with the requisite permissions, and in line with the directives of the Honourable Bombay High Court, we shall be submitting our replies at the appropriate time,” the spokesperson said The PIL alleges that over 25 lakh square metres of land — originally classified as paddy fields under an irrigation command area — was reclassified as settlement zones by the TCP department under Mr. Rane’s watch and environmental clearances were not obtained.
