The BMC said the demolished structure had allegedly been a major obstacle for pedestrians for the past three years. A restaurant was erected by using steel size of 3 meters (3 feet) x 5.5 meters (3 feet) and the BMC had received several complaints from the local citizens against encroachments and having problems in walking.
Taking into account, the decision to remove the encroachment on the sidewalk was decided by Deputy Commissioner Harshad Kale and Assistant Commissioner of M/West Division Biswas.
Accordingly, on Friday, the M/West Ward staff undertook the demolition and removed the gas cylinders, utensils and all other materials.
