Demolition of the illegally raised twin 40-storied towers of real estate developer Supertech in Noida will begin in two weeks, the Supreme Court said today. The court has directed the Noida Authority to convene a meeting of concerned agencies within 72 hours to finalise the schedule for demolition of Emerald Court.
On January 17, the top court had approved the proposition for the demolition agency finalised by the Noida Authority. Supertech was asked to sign a contract with demolition agency “Edifice” within a week.
The court had also asked Supertech to refund the money with interest to all home-buyers who have booked flats in the Emerald Court project by February 28. “Don’t make them come to the court with contempt petitions”, the bench of Justices DY Chandrachud and Bela Trivedi said while hearing petitions by homebuyers.
