On Sunday, over 120 people were evacuated from an eight-storey building in <a href="https://www.mid-day.com/search/mumbra-all" target="_blank" rel="none noopener">Mumbra</a> after the building's pillars were found to have developed cracks.
The <a href="https://www.mid-day.com/search/thane-municipal-corporation-articles" target="_blank" rel="none noopener">Thane Municipal Corporation</a> (TMC) officials sealed all 45 flats of the building located in Almas Colony.
"The building has 45 flats, of which 10 were already found locked. The residents from the other 35 flats were evacuated. They have made alternative arrangements for accommodation on their own," , chief of TMC's Regional Disaster Management Cell Yasin Tadvi said.
According to the officials, the building is around 20 years old.
The cracks in the pillars were noticed this morning.
"The building did not figure in the list of 'dangerous' structures in the city", Tadvi said.
'Power and water supply of the building has been snapped as a precautionary measure", he added.
"There are three towers of mobile service providers on top of the building, and the civic officials have asked the building office-bearers to remove them," he added. The civic body will take a decision on the building soon as its condition has become dangerous, Tadvi said.
