Keshavnagar Gram Panchayat has recently been included in the corporation as the remaining part of the municipal corporation. Presently the administration is being seen by the governing body. In spite of providing fundamental facilities, the incident happened today due to the failure of the corporation to do the structural audit of the unauthorized constructions and old constructions.
There are many old and new unauthorized constructions on the bank of the river and along the river, near the mines. If this time of testing is done then the future crash will be avoided. The citizens are demanding that the police should look at the incident seriously.
When the Gram Panchayat was in charge. At that time we were preventing unauthorized construction. Occasionally, using rigid language. Due to the division of Keshavnagar area in the metropolitan municipality, the land and buildings in this area have created huge demand and price. The municipal officials come and inspect the unauthorized construction and only give notice. So there is no clue on this construction.
