In Raipur, municipal officials demolished structures in an illegal colony and removed sewer covers as part of a crackdown on unauthorized settlements.
Earlier this week, Raipur municipal authorities carried out a large‑scale operation in an illegal colony on the outskirts of the city.
The operation involved the demolition of several makeshift dwellings that had been built without permission.
In addition to the demolitions, officials removed the covers of the local sewer system to prevent further encroachment and address sanitation concerns.
The city’s civic body stated that the action was taken to enforce zoning laws and improve public health and safety in the area.
