No complaint regarding any unauthorised construction in this particular building was received," official added.The official further stated that the civic authority has conducted a survey for detection of dangerous buildings in all six zones before the onset of monsoon season.During the survey, around 700 properties under the North MCD were found in dangerous condition, while 444 buildings were identified for carrying out necessary repairs."To prevent occurrence of any such incidence in future, a thorough survey of the areas will be conducted again in the next 48 hours especially, of the buildings, which have been already identified as dangerous," North MCD said in an official statement."Those buildings which are found at imminent risk after the survey, will be vacated as per law."Meanwhile, the North MCD has directed all the zonal authorities to depute zonal engineers for re-assessment of the conditions of already declared dangerous buildings and to take immediate action.On the other hand, Delhi police have filed an FIR under section 304 of IPC in the building collapse incident and an investigation is underway, said a senior police official.Disclaimer: This post has been auto-published from an agency feed without any modifications to the text and has not been reviewed by an editor
