In a major announcement, the Chief Minister of Haryana, Manohar Lal Khattar has ordered a complete structural audit of Gurgaon's Chintels Paradiso housing complex, days after a ceiling collapsed at Chintels Paradiso in Sector 109, taking lives of two people.
As per PTI, the CM directed for an audit by the Indian Institute of Technology (IIT) Delhi or a similar institute.
"We are deeply saddened by the tragic incident and our hearts are with the residents. We will get safety audits done for all societies and the builders will pay for it. This will ensure that there is no scope of a repeat of such accidents”, he quoted to the media.
The development came after residents of several housing societies held a meeting on Sunday evening demanding action against the developer and authorities. After the four-hour long meeting, the representatives decided to stage a larger protest with more than 1,000 residents, if their demands are not met within a week’s time.
The Haryana CM also directed the local administration to identify all such buildings and have their audits done at the builders' expense and issued directions to make interim arrangements for Chintels Paradiso residents, PTI reported.
