Mahira homebuyers stage protest in Jantar Mantar against delay in delivery
Mahira Homes flat buyers held a protest in Delhi against the developer's failure to deliver homes on time. Delivery was scheduled for August 2022, but work has been stopped for a year. Despite assurances from authorities and the developer, there has been no progress. Around 1,500 buyers have invested in the project, which was launched in 2018. The project was cancelled due to discrepancies in documents submitted by the developer. The decision was later revoked in September, and the developer was asked to complete the project within six months. The project is expected to be delivered by the end of the year.
