Overview

• Viral images from Ashok Chowk show the rotary beam running close to a family’s balcony, with NHAI stating a 1.5-metre gap remains.
• In a post on X, NHAI said it flagged the encroachment during construction and asked the Nagpur Municipal Corporation to act, asserting the flyover meets approved designs and safety norms.
• NMC says the house has no sanctioned plan and describes the protruding balcony as unauthorized, with removal to follow.
• The residents say they received notice only months ago and report no compensation or clear explanation from authorities.
• Times Now, citing TOI, reports a senior NHAI official claimed the contractor and the homeowner earlier agreed to build the rotary through the balcony, a point not included in NHAI’s public statement.
