The Bhubaneswar Development Authority’s (BDA) initiative to use
implosion technology for building demolition has been deferred due to
delay in processing of the requisite permission.
Even though
Commissionerate Police has approved the BDA’s proposal on use of
implosion technology, the latter has to get additional NOCs to ensure no
damage or injury to property or life during the demolition.
BDA officials along with the Indore-based implosion technology expert made a presentation before the police on Tuesday.
The
special drive has been deferred till February 18 after which about
eight illegal constructions will be lined up by the BDA for demolition.
The implosion technology will be used for high rise construction as manual demolition usually takes days to be completed.
