Indore Municipal Corporation (IMC) removed unsafe balconies from an old bank building near Rajwada on Thursday following two incidents of falling debris, prompting safety concerns. The civic body acted after the bank management ignored notices to rectify the structural issues. Bulldozed with a Poclain machine, the weakened balconies temporarily halted traffic to ensure public safety.
Falling plaster from a balcony during Dol Gyaras celebrations last month, and an iron structure falling two days ago, led to the decision. The balconies on the first and second floors had weakened due to rain and aging, posing a risk to pedestrians and motorists. Despite repeated warnings, the bank management failed to adhere to the IMC's deadline, leading to the demolition being undertaken by the municipal team.
