Earlier also the NMC had sent notices to the owners of these dangerous buildings.However,no action was taken by the owners.
As per information,a fine of Rs.25000 each will be levied on such building owners.The dilapidated and old buildings are likely to cause major disasters during heavy rains.Areas like Mahal,Itwari,and Gandhibagh have the most dilapidated buildings and hence the NMC is taking measures to identify and demolish them.
