The Lucknow Development Authority on Saturday demolished the four-storey building in Aliganj where 15 people died in a fire at an animation coaching centre. The action came 32 days after the tragedy and followed an investigation that found illegal construction and commercial use of a residential building. LDA officials said the demolition aimed to enforce safety regulations.
Lucknow: Thirty two days after a devastating fire claimed 15 lives at an animation coaching centre in Aliganj, the Lucknow Development Authority (LDA) on Saturday began demolishing the illegally constructed four storey building where the tragedy occurred.
Operation Details and Security Arrangements
The demolition drive started around 7.30 am with a team of 45 LDA officials and employees arriving at the site with three bulldozers and a hydraulic machine. The area was sealed off before the operation, with barricades placed on adjoining roads to stop traffic. More than 100 police personnel were deployed to maintain law and order and ensure the demolition was carried out without disruption.
The building had come under scrutiny after a massive fire broke out on June 22 on its second floor, where an animation coaching centre was operating. Fifteen people were charred to death in the blaze, making it one of Lucknow's deadliest fire accidents in recent years.
