Yesterday, residents of Mohan Nagar met Dr Pardeshi and requested him to stop the ongoing demolition of an illegal first-floor residential building measuring 1,400 sq feet, in Shiv Dashan colony in the area. The building had around five studio apartments and the residents had been asked to evacuate the complex.u00a0

However, the mob got furious when Pardeshi asked them to submit documents showing the construction to be legal to stop the demolition. They also gheraoed his vehicle and manhandled his security.
