Legal Question in Real Estate Law in India

Hi ! i stay in mumbai ! recent one of the society member complained to BMC about the alteration inside my house. We had converted out kitchen to a room and for that they have complained to BMC. this change has been for 15 years .

BMC has issued us section 53(1) of maharashtra regional and town planning act 1966 and told us to redo the kitchen into same old thing within 30 days !

I would like to know what can be done to avoid the redo of house ?

Dear Sir / Madam,

Major structural alterations like demolishing internal walls which will hamper the life of the building are not permitted. If you have done it, the BMC is right in asking you to restore it back to the original plan and you will have to abide by the law.

Regards,
