Assess building ‘harmed’ by metro work, says HC

MUMBAI: The Bombay high court on Tuesday ordered Mumbai Metropolitan Regional Development Authority (MMRDA) to carry out a structural audit of a building in Andheri West, following claims by the housing society that its structure had been damaged due to the construction work on the Mumbai metro.

Hearing an application filed by residents of Gautam Niwas on J P Road, Andheri West, a division bench of Justice F I Rebello and Justice J H Bhatia asked MMRDA to submit an interim report within seven days. Mumbai Metro One (MMOPL) offered to deposit Rs 10 lakh in court towards the assessment and for subsequent repairs, if any.
