Supertech twin towers demolition preparation on. Here’s all you need to know

The Supertech twin tower demolition in Noida – which has been in headlines- is set to take place on Sunday (August 28) at 2:30 pm, for which the preparations are underway. The plan to demolish the towers was finalised in a meeting in the presence of members of the residents’ group of the two adjoining societies – Emerald Court and ATS Villages – and representatives of demolition firm Edifice Engineering, Noida Police, fire department, among others. The plan for D-day is set and the preparations are underway.

According to the demolition firm Edifice Engineering officials, over 3,500 kg of explosives will be used to raze the 100-meter tall twin towers. The impact of the demolition is likely to be maximum on the Emerald Court and ATS Village societies. While the twin towers had come up only on premises of Emerald Court, ATS Village is adjoining the illegal structures on the other side in Sector 93-A of the city.
