The Bruhat Bengaluru Mahanagara Palike’s (BBMP) ongoing anti-encroachment drive was intensified on Thursday, and the civic body completely demolished a one-storey building in the Mahadevapura zone after giving prior notice to the residents.
BBMP officials said that the building was demolished in Munnekolala’s Shantiniketan Layout. “The Revenue Department tahsildar had earlier issued a notice to the residents staying in the building to move out of the structure soon. As per the notice, the residents have vacated the building and hence, on Thursday, using JCB, we completely demolished the building,” said a senior BBMP official.
