The encroachments were demolished on Tuesday by GHMC authorities after sustained campaigning and repeated complaints from local residents. In fact, reports suggested that the local residential welfare associations had a court order directing authorities to take-up demolition of the illegal structure.

Based on the court’s orders, the GHMC officials carried out the demolition. However, the local residents also alleged that the demolition was only partial and that the encroached structures were not completely removed. They are now demanding a complete removal of the encroachment to restore the main road.
