Moreover, RMC plans on imposing heavy fines for regularising all existing commercial buildings. According to details, the authorities concerned will declare these stretches ‘commercial roads’ following the completion of the survey in addition to allowing the construction of commercial buildings in these new areas. The move is also expected to generate additional revenue for RMC. Moreover, buildings constructed in violation of approved plans will also be heavily fined.
