Burdwan Municipality

Top three floors of an eight-storey commercial building were erected illegally in which the Burdwan Municipality cracked down on Tuesday afternoon and stopped the construction.

The civic body chairman Paresh Chandra Sarkar, accompanied by the civil engineering department officials, raided the building and the authority stuck notices issued to suspend further construction. Sarkar said: “The builders have flouted the provisions of municipal affairs department’s building plan rules and at least three floors of the structure were erected without bothering for civic body’s approval. The work has been stopped.”
