The society office-bearers claim an No-Objection Certificate (NOC) was not obtained from the society before renting out for commercial purposes
A day after the alleged theft at Juinagar branch of Bank of Baroda, residents of the 16-storey Bhakti Residency, where the bank is situated, are worried about damage to the building’s structure due to the 25-feet-long underground tunnel. Moreover, the society office-bearers claim an No-Objection Certificate (NOC) was not obtained from the society before renting out for commercial purposes.
Residents of Bhakti Residency at Sector 11 in Sanpada were in shock when they learnt about the alleged theft reported inside Bank of Baroda on Monday morning. Society members rushed to check the credentials of the shop owner and the tenant.
“We have learnt the shop was rented out by the owner to one person named Gena Prasad. But we suspect the shop was further sublet. We have not given an NOC to the tenant as there are nine shops, out of which one is available for renting while the rest are occupied. Four shops were taken on rent by the bank itself,” said Satish Oberoi, chairman of the housing society.
“We will make stricter rules for tenants and will again conduct re-verification of other tenants living currently in the society. We will now ask the society members to get police verification of tenants done and submit detailed identification proof of the person before letting the property on rent. We will also be filling the tunnel and conducting a structural audit to ascertain if any interior portion of the building is damaged,’ said Oberoi.
Other residents of the building said they visited the Shree Balaji Store, which was used as a cover by the thieves, to buy products but mostly returned empty-handed as it did not keep even basic commodities. The tenant paid a rent of Rs 20,000 and opened the store for only a couple of hours in the day.
