Demolition of 208 Kochi Chander Kunj Army Apartments to Begin in October
The demolition of 208 apartments in towers 'B' and 'C' of Kochi's Chander Kunj Army Apartment Complex will begin on October 5, 2026, following the Kerala High Court's dismissal of a petition challenging the demolition contract awarded to Mumbai-based Edifice Engineering. The District Collector's Committee oversees the process, with demolition expected to take four months and debris clearance another two. Apartment owners have raised concerns about accountability during handover, while Edifice plans to deploy a 100-member team after taking custody of the apartments.
