Noida Twin Towers gone in 9 seconds, 9-year legal battle comes to close
FirstpostNoida: The Supertech Twin Towers in Noida have been demolished using over 3,700 kg of explosives. The Apex and Ceyane towers were under construction since 2009 within the Supertech Emerald Court housing society in Sector 93A of Noida, adjoining the national capital of Delhi. A team of Edifice, South Africa’s Jet Demolitions, CBRI and Noida officials was conducting the structural analysis of adjacent buildings in the Emerald Court and the ATS Village societies. The New Okhla Industrial Development Authority, also called the Noida Authority, had received a rap on its knuckles as the top court pointed out multiple incidents of collusion of its officials with Supertech Ltd in the Emerald Court project and violations of norms by the realty major in construction of the twin towers. The top court ordered that Supertech would bear the cost of the demolition as it noted that the construction of twin towers, which was not part of the original plan for Emerald Court, directly affected the quality of life of its residents.
