As I understand from your query, you had invited tenders from eligible developers for redevelopment of the society. This Developer was selected on the basis of tenders and now, he is not co-operating and not executing development agreement.
If this is the scenario, then 1) first of all, convene the meeting of the General Body and cancel the appointment of this perticular builder developer and inform the builder in writing of the termination of his engagement. Also cancel the engagement of your society Advocate and the Project Management Consultant. If the time permits, before cancelling appointment of the Builder, issue him a notice seeking execution of Development Agreement. If time is pressing, you can take your own decision on this. 2) Make complaint regarding the Builder to CREDAI and the PMC. You can also Make complaint regarding the Advocate and the project consultant to their professional bodies. 3) Then, invite fresh Tenders. It is possible that, the builder may file a court case agaisnt you. Hence, first file a caveat in the court of law so as to protect you against an ex- parte order.
4) frankly speaking, you can go to NCDRC, but it will take a lot of time. I attend NCDRC for my matters and know that, the matter lingers for a long time.
5) For criminal action, I need to peruse the entire documents for giving any opinion.
