Congress Vice President Rahul Gandhi today met home-buyers from Delhi and NCR region to listen to their grievances. Delayed delivery of flats and allegations of cheating by private builders were discussed during the meeting. The meeting took place at the Congress headquarters amid party’s criticism of the Real Estate Bill brought by the NDA government.

Later talking to media, Mr Gandhi alleged the NDA government is cheating that middle class. He said, the Government is amending the Real Estate Bill in order to benefit the builders, not buyers. He also charged the Centre with diluting the provisions of UPA draft to favour builders. Mr Gandhi said, the major difference between the UPA’s Bill and BJP’s proposed Bill is that it lacks transparency. He said, people who are paying for flats, they are not given possession and are made fake promises.
