Rajendranagar: As part of its 'Monsoon Action Plan' towards preventing any untoward incident during rainy season, GHMC took up demolition of a few more dilapidated structures in different areas.
Fresh wave of demolitions are being taken up following Sitaphalmandi incident, in which a toddler died after 70-year old dilapidated house collapsed, while two others were injured.
According to officials, the Town Planning wing of GHMC Rajendranagar on Tuesday carried out demolition of total 6 structures at Lakshmiguda, Budvel and Hyderaguda under its limits.
It may mentioned here that in the previous month, the town planning wing had unleashed their machines to pull down total 4 ramshackle structures at Hyderaguda and Budwel areas as part of its monsoon action plan against vulnerable buildings posing high risk to the lives of their inmates and even citizens during the rainy season.
This time it razed total 6 structures that stood as grave risk to the lives of public in general and their inmates in particular. The civic body has identified hundreds of structures in and around the city under its limits this year and taking action by pulling number of dilapidated structures from early this month.
The fresh wave of demolitions are being carried out following a toddler's death after slab of 70-yr old dilapidated house collapsed in Sitaphalmandi on Sunday. Two others including the toddler's mother residing in the building were also injured.
The GHMC Commissioner on Monday said that it was unfortunate that a child died due to roof collapse of an old building. He said there were 457 dilapidated buildings in the GHMC limits on which action is yet to be taken. He instructed the Chief City Planner to issue charge memo to the concerned if there was further delay in taking action.
