SHIMLA: Chief minister Sukhvinder Singh Sukhu on Wednesday launched an auto development control regulation (DCR) building permission system that will automate the process of scrutinising building plan and approving blueprints and designs of the buildings. He said the system would not only ensure transparency, but also improve accountability in the building permit process and approval of building maps.
Another feature of the system is that the registered architect can permit and approve the construction of residential accommodation in an area of up to 500 square feet. The CM said: “This feature will provide much relief to the people as they will not have to go to the office of town and country planning department for approvals of residential accommodation.”
He said from March 13 onwards, the applicants from the planning area under the TCP and those in six urban local bodies, namely MC Shimla and Solan, Baddi-Barotiwala-Nalagarh Development Authority (BBNDA), municipal council Theog and Baddi, and nagar panchayat Arki, can apply on the web portal.
