Days after the partial collapse of a building in Gurugram’s Chintels Paradiso which left two persons dead, the District Town and Country Planning’s (DTCP) team led by, RS Bhath visited Brisk Lumbini society in sector 109 and inspected the construction and structural safety on Thursday, after receiving several complaints. Residents have already been demanding a structural audit of the building. Residents had also filed a complaint against the developer.
An official said that a team of DTCP led by Bhath visited the society’s basement, flat and other areas on Thursday and saw issues raised by the residents.
“During the inspection, the team noticed that basement seepage, few cracks emerge in pillars and balconies plasters were also fallen. Around 30 residents were present at the site,” said the official.
“The residents requested to get structural audit soon and also ask the builder to do repairs of short time. We will ask the developer to get a few things to repair immediately of urgent nature under the supervision of qualified engineers and also assured residents that we will take up the matter on priority,” Bhath said.
Recently, another housing society — NBCC Green View Society located in Sector 37-D — has been declared unsafe for the residents.
