Kathmandu Metropolitan City Mayor Balen Shah has given continuity to his drive to demolish illegal structures. Shah along with his team reached the Department of Passport in Tripureshwor on Friday. The KMC had issued a 35-day notice to demolish the illegal structures.

The Metropolitan City swung into action after its notice was ignored by the people.

Earlier on Thursday, the KMC demolished the basement of the Alfa Beta Complex in New Baneshwor. A team led by Mayor Shah demolished the structure saying that it was built against the rule. The Alfa Beta had been operating a pharmacy in the basement. Shah with his team reached the Alfa Beta Complex after the owner ignored the 35-day notice of the KMC. When the team reached the Complex, managing director of Alfa Beta Dwiraj Sharma asked the Mayor Shah to present his building’s blueprint.
