A resident, Rajesh Khanna, accused the MC officials of not issuing any notice to them before demolishing the structure. This structure was raised for an operator, who looked after the water tank there.

“It is wrong, as how the officials can take action when the area is not even under the MC's jurisdiction,” he claimed.

Residents met zonal commissioner Kamlesh Bansal and demanded inquiry and action against the officials concerned.
