Cuttack to Demolish 221 Unsafe Buildings After Court Order

The government in Odisha, India, is going to knock down 221 buildings in the city of Cuttack because they are not safe.

This is happening because the High Court told them to.

A committee checked the buildings and found them unsafe.

Most of the buildings are owned by the government, and a few are private.

The government is using a law that allows them to remove things that are dangerous.

People who own the buildings were told about the plan.

The government has a plan to take the buildings down and is working with different groups to make it happen.
