EKTP Phase II, being premises No. A 231/1/138 Rajdanga Main Road, Kolkata-700107, Police Station Kasba within ward No. 107, Kolkata Municipal Corporation District South 24-Parganas located at MARSHELIN CO-OPERATIVE HOUSING SOCIETY LIMITED LIMITED a co-operative Housing Society registered under the West Bengal Co-operative Societies Act,1983 being Registration No. 18/CMAH of 1992 having its registered office East Kolkata Township Project (EM Bye Pass) Phase II, Kolkata-7000107, Police Station- Kasba District 24-Parganas (South). The residential flat had 1 bedroom and one portion of the veranda to be completed by me (attached is the floor plan, extended portion is marked in orange).So I had approached one of contractor for raising the supper structure and the casting of the same. The chosen contractor was also executing similar jobs in the same premises named “ Mondal Construction & Interior”, under the proprietor of Mr. Tapan Mondal. Mr. Mondal had submitted a Xerox(A single quotation given to other flat onwer’s) of the quotation dt. 03.07.2013[Scanned copy attached] and received on 05.07.2013. Upon verbal discussion the Contractor it was agreed that presently the contractor will execute in raising the supper structure and the casting of the shown portion of the floor plan. As per the quotation the said valve for executing the job was Rs.70,000.00[ Copy of quotation attached].The contractor had verbally told that he will complete the shown portion in the floor map by 2 months and the rest money to be paid after the execution of the job . On verbal commitment and faith I had given an advance of Rs. 30,000 vide chq. 979495 dt. 14.08.13[Scanned copy attached]. For starting the job he has demolished the existing veranda of Flat No. A3/16 and also broke the existing veranda of mine Flat No. A3/11. Till date he has constructed on 3 columns in the month of September and only done the shuttering in the month of October which is the base work for doing the casting. Upon deliberation and request the contractor for completing the job the contractor is asking for money. I had also told him that I can issue a post dated cheque and the date will be the day the casting will be done. Still the contractor is persisting asking money and threatened by phone that he will not do any job further and will remove all the shuttering. As per the present scenario I am not able to open any of the doors for the veranda and the same has become a safety issue. I hereby request to kindly examine my case and help us so that I can shift to my new flat as soon as possible. With Regards, Saugata Das & Tania Das.
