After a long battle, the Supertech twin towers of Noida were finally demolished at 2:30 pm on Sunday with a booming blast in around nine seconds.
To demolish the towers around 3,700 kg of explosives were infused into the two towers. Soon after the explosion took place at the press of a button, the towers came crashing down, generating a cloud of massive dust polluting the atmosphere around.
The tallest towers to be demolished in the country — Ceyane (29 floors) and Apex (32 floors) — were part of the Emerald Court project of Supertech Ltd and were found to be in violation of multiple regulations regarding construction.

The twin buildings, which comprise 915 flats and are located just nine metres from Emerald Court’s Aster-2 apartment block, were fully rigged with explosives and wired up.
Environment Department of the Uttar Pradesh government has installed six Special dust machines at the demolition site to monitor pollution levels.
“Pollution levels will be recorded before, during and after the explosion. The amount of PM 10 and PM 2.5 will be checked through this machine. Its report will come in the next 24 hours,” said a technician, Umesh.
