Introduction

Right to Public Services legislation in Maharashtra comprises statutory laws which guarantee time bound delivery of services for various public services rendered by the Government to citizen and provides mechanism for punishing the errant public servant who is deficient in providing the service stipulated under the statute. Right to Service legislation is meant to reduce corruption among the government officials and to increase transparency and public accountability. Government of Maharashtra has passed an ordinance in April 2015 to implement this in the state.

Urban Development Department (UDD) issued a GR dated 26th June 2015 with the list of 15 services to be offered.
