UP Rera to setup e-courts starting November

Noida: The Uttar Pradesh Real Estate Regulatory Authority( UP-Rera) is all set to start e-courts starting November this year sources said.
The new move will save time along with speedy disposal of cases. Moreover, the complainant will have to come to the court only once at the time of final arguments before the UP-Rera benches deliver the order.
UP-Rera chairman Rajive Kumar said, “As of now, though we receive applications online, and during the hearings, complainants have to come several times to the UP-Rera to plead their case. Our plan is to introduce e-courts from November. Under this process, a complainant will have to come only at the final hearing stage.” Explaining how the new e-court system will function, Kumar said: “On receiving an online complaint, a builder will be asked to submit a reply and the reply will then be emailed to the complainant. After this, the complainant will file a counter reply or can come up with more pleadings. These replies or further pleadings will be emailed to the builder’s representative. On getting a response from the builder to the complainant’s queries, the complainant will be asked to file counter reply. Both builder and complainant will be asked to submit the evidence and supporting documents.” “Once all documents and replies and counter replies are presented, the complainant and the builder representative will be called at UP-Rera court for a final hearing. Both parties will argue their cases, and the UP-Rera bench can then either issue an order the same day or reserve the order and then issue the order within next few days, and both parties will get a copy of the order. However, for getting a certified copy of the order, one will have to apply online and pay the prescribed fee,” UP- Rera Chairman added.
All the new complaints will eb processed under this system confirmed officials.
