Members of the Tamizhaga Veettu Vasathi Vaaria Orunkinaintha Othukeetalarkal Nalah Sangam staged a protest on Wednesday demanding sale deeds.

The members who had bought flats from the Tamil Nadu Housing Board in its various schemes in the city said that the Board would do well to abide by various court judgments, stop collecting usurious interest from flat buyers and in stead issue sale deeds.

Appeal

The Board should, as per the suggestion of the Advocate General of the Government of Tamil Nadu, order of the Constitutional Bench, should start levying statutory interest 15 per cent only from September 2001 and not earlier. They appealed to the Board to withdraw the appeal it had filed against the favourable verdict obtained by the Brindhavan Nagar residents and give them the sale deeds and stop taking one adjournment after another in another in a contempt case the residents had filed.

The Board should fix the land rate based on the guidance a Coimbatore court had given in the LAOP case the residents of Plague XI Nethaji Nagar and 109 Uppilipalayam had filed and it should also fight the LAOP cases in various courts for an early settlement, they demanded.

The residents then emailed their demands to the Chief Minister’s cell as well.
