ULHASNAGAR: The Ulhasnagar Municipal Corporation has provided an ultimatum to inhabitants of 50 buildings which came up from 1994-1995 to successfully perform a structural audit in 15 days, failing which they’ll be shifted.
The decision was taken following two construction crashes — which of Sai Shakti on Friday night and Mohini Palace on May 15.
Overall, 12 people are murdered, seven to Friday and five at the previous crash.
Both buildings were built in 1994-1995, when poor grade of sand was employed for construction of buildings in the township.
TimesViewIf UMC is devoting notices, it has to also arrange for lodging for a substantial amount of individuals.
Besides the state authorities should urgently take up the job of renovation of a number of those buildings that are shaky and in exactly the identical time commence actions against the contractors that were accountable for building these illegal, poisonous structures.
Thane guardian ministry Eknath Shinde said the state administration will provide Rs 5 lakh to the kin of all those deceased from the most recent tragedy.
Dr Yuvraj Bhadane, public relations officer of Ulhasnagar Municipal Corporation, stated,”Following the Mohini Palace meltdown, individuals at the previous ten days have served visits to 990 buildings that seem dangerous from the exterior, such as 50 buildings which came in 1994-1995, requesting them to find structural audits completed.
” He also added,”To prevent any human reduction later on, the human body on a priority basis could evacuate people residing in 50 buildings which have established in 1994-1995.
Most buildings built at the time are decreasing because poor grade of sand had been used in this interval.
” Shinde has requested UMC leader Dr Raja Dayanidhi to compose a report on technical issues faced by taxpayers in regularisation and redevelopment of buildings that were illegal regardless of the FSI of 4 granted to these buildings.
He stated,”Back in 1994-95, the community civic body had demolished a number of those unauthorised buildings by yanking their slabs, columns and sticks.
However, some programmers welded the iron sticks, recast the slabs and rebuilt the buildings.
Such arrangements are currently crashing.
” He headed the UMC primary to shift residents of these structures to safer areas.
