Living here was like taking a chance with life. However, the residents challenged the decision of BMC in the High Court. Since the matter was sub-judice the BMC did not take any action against the residents of the building.
Today, the residents felt tremor in the A wing building of Gitanjali Complex. At around 10 am, the 3 families living in the building were evacuated. Within two hours of the evacuation the building collapsed.
