Noida Chief Executive Officer Ritu Maheshwari said that no damage has been reported yet and only some debris came towards the road.
Noida: With the demolition done, the next challenge for authorities now is to clean the mountain of debris generated. Officials have said that about 55,000 tonnes of debris would be generated and will be taken in 3000 trucks. The debris is solid in nature hence it will be tough to take them away from the demolished site. The material included mainly rubble, steel and iron bars which may be cleared by the end of this year.
Additionally, there is a possibility of an increase in dust and air pollution in and around the area. The authorities have, however, installed special machines to monitor dust and pollution and have deployed dozens of water sprinklers and smog guns to settle the dust. But the area will remain polluted as dust will be generated while transporting the debris.
Noida Chief Executive Officer Ritu Maheshwari said that no damage has been reported yet and only some debris came towards the road. The Noida CEO said that residents of Emerald Court and ATS society can return to their homes after 6:30 pm. She also informed about measures to curb pollution in the area.
“Broadly, no damage to nearby housing societies. Only some debris has come towards the road. We will get a better idea of the situation in an hour,” Ritu Maheshwari said.
The CEO, in a tweet, said, “#TwinTowers have been safely demolished under the supervision of hon CM @myogiadityanath ji & @upgovt with the combined efforts of Team @Noida_Authority, @noidapolice, administration & citizens.
“Cleaning operations underway in the areas near the #TwinTowers demolition site. 100 water tankers for sprinkling water, 6 mechanical sweeping machines, 22 anti-smog guns & 700 workers, operating in full-swing,” she tweeted.
