Our Story

Forum For People’s Collective Efforts (FPCE) is a not-for-profit company formed by the core committee members of ‘Fight For RERA’ (FFR) under section 8 of the Companies Act, 2013, primarily to work towards protection of citizen’s right and to bring equity in the society.

Fight For RERA (FFR) was a movement initiated for taking collective steps, by involving homebuyers from all across India, with the objective to compel the Central Government to enact the Real Estate Bill (RERA) on a top priority basis, as it had been pending for long. With sustained efforts of FFR, the Real Estate (Regulation and Development) Bill was passed by both the Houses of Parliament in March, 2016.

FPCE, as a legal entity was necessitated after builders filed writ petitions challenging the legal validity of RERA, across various High Courts. There was need to establish a legal entity in order to implead in the said writ petitions and to save and protect RERA.

However, when FPCE was being conceptualised, it was felt that there is a need for a body which should not only work to protect the interest of homebuyers but also citizen’s rights. It was felt that Government policies are influenced by big industrial associations and the common person goes unheard. This not only makes the ordinary person feel left out and ignored, but also puts enormous pressure on them due to lop sided policies of the Government. Thus, the name FPCE was finalised.

At present, FPCE is taking forward the left over agenda from where FFR left by playing an important role in ensuring timely and effective implementation of RERA pan India.

At the same time, it shall gradually start working for the benefit of all those persons who are not ordinarily part of any association and thus are not represented before the Governments which make policies and laws, for example salaried class, small business person, rural households, in order to ensure that there is no more concentration of India’s wealth in a few hands. We also plan to undertake in future activities to ensure that every citizen of country gets speedy justice and that justice is not limited only for the rich.
