Gurugram, Oct. 21 -- At least 12 families living in three residential buildings in Sushant Lok-I's Block-C were evacuated after an under-construction five-storey building developed cracks and tilted after excavation work started on an adjoining plot on Monday, police said on Tuesday. Investigators said nearby residents informed police 4pm after which police evacuated residents from three neighbouring buildings. Two large cranes were deployed at the spot to support the structure of the building which tilted by 2.5 inches, officials said, adding that the area has been sealed off. ACP (east) Anil Kumar said that three residential buildings, each consisting of four flats, were vacated as a precautionary measure and the district administration was also alerted. Residents alleged that haphazard digging work by the contractor on the adjacent plot caused it to develop cracks. Archana Jagirdar, a resident of a neighbouring house who saw the building tilt said she felt her building shaking on Monday. She said the owner of the adjacent plot didn't respond after being informed about the situation. Gaurav Rampall, Archana's husband, said the building owner rushed to the spot and found that his building had developed cracks. "We along with several others are now forced to shift to hotels," he said. When contacted, the plot owner refused to comment on the matter. On complaint of the damaged building owner, an FIR under relevant sections of the BNS was against the owner of the adjoining plot, its contractor and the operator of the earthmover involved in the excavation at Sushant Lok police station on Tuesday, police said, adding that further action is underway....
