Summary:
The Municipal Corporation (MC) has declared 128 buildings unsafe over the years. Mishaps due to collapse of unsafe buildings are reported almost every year, sometimes resulting in loss of lives. Officials say the MC has already been tasked to prepare a fresh list of the unsafe buildings to take appropriate action. It has been seen for the past many years that owners are often reluctant to demolish unsafe buildings and use every method to halt action. Municipal Town Planner Parampal Singh said a fresh survey of unsafe buildings was being conducted after which notices would be issued to owners..
