DemolitionOrderedforElita Garden Vista's Residential Tower by Calcutta High Court

In a significant development, the Calcutta High Court has issued a demolition order for a multi-story residential tower located in the outskirts of Kolkata. The tower, which was part of a real estate project consisting of 15 towers, was constructed illegally, resulting in financial implications for the flat owners of the other 14 towers.

The real estate project in question, "Areal Lehenmatt SΓΌd," was the subject of the court order. The order, issued on Friday, concerns buildings within this development area, as indicated by the planning and demolition provisions from the Basel-Stadt authorities in August 2025. However, the court has not specified which real estate project the tower belongs to in the latest order.

The case is named Rajan Kumar Prasad & Ors v New Town Kolkata Development Authority & Ors, but the article does not provide any new details about this case. The demolition order was issued due to the tower's construction being in violation of legal norms.

The cost of constructing the illegally built tower was borne by the undivided share of flat owners of the other 15 towers in the same real estate project. The article does not contain any new information about the financial impact on the flat owners of the other 14 towers.

It is important to note that the Calcutta High Court has not issued any new orders regarding the other 14 towers in the real estate project. The article does not provide any new information about the reason why the demolition order was issued on Friday or the day of the week when the order was issued.

This decision underscores the importance of adhering to legal norms in construction projects, especially in densely populated areas like Kolkata. The demolition of the tower is expected to have a ripple effect on the real estate market in the region, and further developments in this case will be closely watched.
