ACS, Town & Country Planning, Devender Singh, IAS said there is a need to educate the allottees and their associations about the various provisions of the Haryana Apartment Ownership Act, 1983, the Haryana Registration and Regulation of Societies Act, 2012 and the Real Estate (Regulation and Development Act) 2016. He said many provisions related to associations were incorporated in the RERA Act, 2016, and there is a need to resolve some conflicting provisions and ensure implementation of others.
"The main purpose of SEWOCON is to spread awareness," said Dr KK Khandelwal, Chairman, HARERA, Gurugram. "Lack of knowledge of provisions related to association of allottees in different Acts is the major problem," he said, adding, "This seminar is the first step to detailed SOP for handing over of project to RWAs, formation of RWAs and obligation of builders." The objective of SEWOCON is not grievance-redressal, but to address common issues pertaining to RWAs, he emphasized.

I urge everyone to participate with a positive mindset as such initiatives go a long way in implementing fair and transparent processes in the realty sector. Awareness and illumination about various provisions coupled with future framework is of paramount importance to enhance the satisfaction quotient of investors. More such initiatives need to be planned in the future creating an atmosphere of responsiveness and objectivity."
While the first session of SEWOCON will focus on the formation of associations of flats or floor-space owners according to the provisions of the Haryana Apartment Ownership Act, 1983, the second session will have discussions on the registration of an association under the Haryana Registration and Regulation of Societies Act, 2012 and the issues related to multiple RWAs in a single project.
