Five-storey building tilts in Gachibowli; evacuated, demolished after panic and injuries

HYDERABAD: A five-storey building in Siddiqnagar, Gachibowli, tilted unexpectedly on Tuesday night, forcing the GHMC to evacuate over 50 residents and demolish the structure on Wednesday. The GHMC began demolition shortly after the evacuation, deploying a hydraulic crane and cordoning off two nearby lanes with heavy police and emergency personnel presence. Officials from the Town Planning department suspect that digging on the adjacent plot, approximately 8–9 feet deep, destabilised the foundation of the affected building, which stood on a 50 sq. Locals reported that construction on the adjacent plot began two months ago.
