INDORE: Residents Welfare Association (RWA) of Shiv Vatika township, where an 18-year-old boy ran his car over a woman resident leading to her death, has decided to prohibit renting flats to bachelors.“Several residents have complained about the nuisance being created by bachelors living on rent here. As such, the committee has decided to impose a ban on it. I have sent a message on society’s WhatsApp group and have requested all flat owners, especially those who have rented their flats to bachelors, to give their flats only to families,” president of the township, Gaurav Naik, said.“Approximately three thousand people reside here. We are currently embroiled in a dispute with the builder regarding various development-related issues.
We havenot been provided with any amenities or facilities, yet the builder continues to ignore our concerns,” he said.Naik also said that the developer has handed over the flats to the owners, and all management, including security and parking, has been handed over to the society’s committee. “The society, however, has yet to receive a non-objection certificate from Indore Municipal Corporation,” he said.Several other societies in the city have also put a ban on bachelors occupying flats on rent.
While some have put an official ban, others have only issued guidelines.“From the outset, our township has maintained a policy against renting flats to bachelors. There have been instances of drinking, smoking and loitering in common areas, which residents find unacceptable. Families live here with children, and such behaviour creates a negative environment. This restriction is also clearly mentioned in our rule book,” said New Race Course township RWA vice president Udit “From the outset, our township has maintained a policy against renting flats to bachelors.
