BENGALURU: The Bengaluru East City Corporation (BECC) has begun razing a six-floor illegal building at Whitefield. BECC Commissioner DS Ramesh said that an operation was carried out to remove an unauthorised six-storey building constructed without plan approval at Victoria View Layout in Nallurahalli, under the Whitefield subdivision. Mahadevapura Zone Joint Commissioner Dr. Dakshayini K was deployed to monitor the operation. “The owner, identified as Srikanth Reddy, has built the unsafe building No-02, Victoria View Layout, Nallurahalli in 1,600 sq ft.
