Reports are suggesting that real estate builder Dosti Realty was looking after the construction at the site. A resident of Lloyd’s Estate told CNN-News18 that they had approached the BMC office and, subsequently, the court over concerns regarding the construction. He said that a “neutral engineer” appointed by the court had assured them that there were no issues with the site.
