Deputy Commissioner Nishant Kumar Yadav issued the order after a meeting with the National Building Construction Corporation (NBCC). The residents will have to vacate by March 1, 2022.

The DPRO Gurugram has assured that the expenses will be borne by the NBCC, ANI reported.

The decision has been taken as the Green View building in Sector 37D, Gurugram, was deemed unsafe last year after a structural audit by the Indian Institute of Technology (IIT), Delhi. It was also announced earlier that the housing society with over 700 flats, constructed by the state-owned NBCC (India) Ltd, will be demolished.
