The tragic death of 74 people in the illegal building collapse in Mumbra should have acted as an eye opener for all civic bodies in and around Mumbai. But it obviously hasn’t. A 10-storied building in Mira Road is on the verge of collapse, but neither the local municipal corporation, nor the builder seem bothered.

Despite repeated complaints to the builder and an SOS to the local Mira-Bhayander Muncipal Corporation, residents of the 10-storeyed Gaurav Enclave say no one has bothered to even visit the site. The building has tilted by more than six inches on its expansion joints. It has also emerged that despite being built in 1998, the building still does not have an Occupation Certificate (OC). All 233 members of the society have now convened an emergency meeting on Sunday to decide the next course of action.
