M.N.S. (Maharashtra Navnirman Sena) supremo Raj Thackeray on Tuesday slammed the state government for denying to batting maestro Sachin Tendulkar extra Floor Space Index (FSI) for his under-construction bungalow.
"It is very shameful of the Maharashtra Government to refuse a small amount of FSI to a world-known player like Sachin Tendulkar. He wanted to buy the FSI and had applied in a legal way," Raj told media.
"There are many outsiders in the city, staying illegally in slums. But the Government makes it legal or provides them with 300 sq ft of free housing (each). Then why Sachin's demand was not fulfilled, when he approached the Government in a legal way?" Raj asked.
Raj didn't stop after it, he takes a dig at C.M. Prithviraj Chavan.
Raj said, "Would Chavan clear away illegal constructions in the city if I brought them to his notice?"
Tendulkar's request for additional FSI was rejected by the Maharashtra govt. because the construction of 8,998 sq ft house had consumed the available FSI fully.
Under the Development Control (DC) rules, only the cooperative societies are given additional FSI for a gymnasium or similar structures, UD sources said.
Also, FSI is a ratio between the built-up area and the plot area.
