MCN to issue notices to 50 dilapidated buildings
In the wake of the collapse of City Lights Hotel in Hyderabad, the authorities of the Municipal Corporation of Nizamabad have decided to issue notices to over 50 old and dilapidated buildings in the town.
Most of them are located in the old town and aged above 70 years. Private building owners, after knowing the MCN’s plan, raised objection. But the authorities were determined to go ahead with the decision to save precious lives, according to K. Mallikarjuna Rao, Assistant City Planner.
The authorities began the demolition process by pulling down one of its own old buildings at Bada Bazar on Wednesday.
