Digital Desk: In Dibrugarh's Loharpatty, the municipal corporation has taken decisive action against an illegally constructed five-storey building.
The unauthorised structure was demolished following directives from the authorities after it had sparked significant public concern and criticism over municipal negligence.
This building had previously led to a tragic incident when a wall collapsed, tragically killing Salma Begum, a neighbouring resident.
She was washing utensils near her tubewell when bricks and a concrete wall from the under-construction building fell on her.
Constructed on a narrow plot of approximately 12-14 feet in width, the five-storey structure posed serious safety risks.
