NEW DELHI:
East Delhi Municipal Corporation on Saturday issued notices to 22 schools and 44 residential group housing societies to obtain structure safety certificate within a month after verifying the seismic stability of
buildings.
The notices were issued after Delhi high court directed the state government and the civic bodies to file a status report regarding seismic stability of buildings in their jurisdiction.
On Friday, TOI had reported that the corporations had fixed a deadline of six months for older buildings, which came up before the seismic provisions were incorporated in Delhi's building bylaws, to obtain a structure safety certificate.
