Experts from Roads and Buildings and Panchayat Raj departments have assessed the buildings and have declared them unsuitable to live.

The EO asked those staying in these buildings to vacate them within a month and notices would also be served to those living in these buildings. The EO appealed to the residents to cooperate with the temple management and vacate the buildings.
