Housing project and transport system should be developed in tandem.Further govt. should also make rules for private developers to invest at-least 25% of total investment in lower income group hosing.The biggest problem in construction industry is that builders target high income group people to earn maximum profit.

Govt and housing boards/corporations, planning and/or development authorities should act like facilitators only and not take up the role of providers. enabling provisions be made in the development control rules to incentivise mass housing construction. should not take housing stock in their hand for disposal to avoid corruption. so also should not construct else quality will suffer.

First pass The Real Estate (Regulation and Development) Bill, 2013 to regulate real estate builders and real state agents. The entire urban population is at the mercy of builders and agents. The real state is fully cartelized and flat prices are not market driven by builder driven. Stop the harassment by builders and agents

When we want to provide many houses for lower class people, our motto must be for less cost and more units.If that is so we must not go for maximum facility and comforts.To achieve this the best way is to give one room kitchen in a multi unit complex and providing common latrines and baths. This is possible in a three story (G+2) u shape building without lift providing also common passage for front room 8" wide and similar passage on backside passage for kitchen side. In Mumbai it is called cha

Local bodies should substantialy increase FSI so that overall cost of builder decrease & affordability to consumers. Also tax exemption for interest & repayment of housing loan should be increased.

Urban housing need an authority to control the housing rates, contracts terms and conditions and keeping private builders under check , holding them responsible for their delays, frauds, non-deliverance and to maintain the quality. there must be minimum quality criteria to be set.
