13 people were killed while nine others sustained injuries after a portion of a four-storeyed building in Dongri collapsed on Tuesday.
The BMC has claimed that it had classified the building in the "C1 category" back in 2017. This classification meant the building was meant "to be evacuated for demolition at the earliest".
Fadnavis announced a compensation of Rs 5 lakh each to the kin of those who died in the building collapse. He also announced a compensation of Rs 50,000 for the injured.
