The Delhi Development Authority has issued a tender to hire contractors to demolish the Signature View Apartments in north Delhi's Mukherjee Nagar, officials said.
The apartment complex, built in 2007-09 with 336 MIG and HIG flats, has some construction issues and has been up for demolition by the DDA.
The notice invited bids for, "Dismantling demolishing the existing and structures/buildings of 336 HIGMIG houses (also known as Signature View Apartments) at Mukherjee Nagar, Delhi, including disposal and transportation of debris to the approved MCD C&D waste dumping ground, and giving credit for serviceable materials from the buildings."
The residents are being compelled to continue their stay in the dangerous building without any financial support from the DDA. The residents have filed a petition in the high court requesting a re-examination of the structural condition of the buildings.
The RWA has suggested DDA to agree to an interim arrangement to pay the proposed rent for the interim period to the owners from the date of vacation of flats. During this interregnum period, the DDA can start the demolition, he suggested.
