If, for any reason, it shall appear to the Council that any building or any room in a building intended for or used as a dwelling is unfit for human habitation, the Council shall give to the owner or occupier of such building notice in writing stating such reason, and signifying its intention to prohibit the further use of the building or room, as the case may be, as a dwelling, and shall, in such notice, call upon the owner or occupier aforesaid to state in writing any objection, thereto, within thirty days after the receipt of such notice; and if no objection is raised by such owner or occupier within such period as aforesaid, or if any objection which is raised by such owner or occupier within such period appears to the Council invalid or insufficient, the Council may, by an order in writing, prohibit the further use of such building or room as a dwelling.(2)
When any such prohibition as aforesaid has been made by the Council, the Chief Officer shall cause notice of such prohibition to be affixed to, and the words "unfit for human habitation" and corresponding expression in Marathi to be painted on the door or some conspicuous part of such building or room, as the case may be; and no owner or occupier of such building or room shall use or suffer the same to be used for human habitation until the Council certifies in writing that the building or room, as the case may be, has been rendered fit for human habitation.Your private note on this section
