Greater Mohali Area Development Authority (GMADA) deciding to introduce an online system fot the submission of building designs from January 1. To ensure effective implementation of the scheme, banks and telecom companies have been roped in for depositing e-fees and sending SMSes to acknowledge the receipt of designs.
As fees would be charged for the facility, GMADA has signed an agreement with a few banks for providing the service. Private architects too have to get themselves registered with GMADA to ensure online submission of building designs prepared by them.
The architects would be issued a password, which would authorize them to submit building designs online. Once the design is submitted, GMADA would inform the person or architect concerned through an SMS. Software for the online system, which would include plan-approval tracking and management facility, has been developed.
Under the new facility, building plans would be received online from property owners or architects representing residents who want to raise a structure under GMADA’s ambit. After receiving the designs, soft copies would be sent to the respective draftsman or junior engineer for checking and verification. In case any change is required, the plan would be redirected to the applicant with necessary remarks. Once the building design is sanctioned, the same would be conveyed to the person concerned through email or SMS.
