The unauthorised lodge, which had 290 rooms, was situated at the picturesque Upavan Lake, a release from the civic body said.
Besides this, officials from the anti-encroachment department pulled down five bars, eight lodges, 25 dhabas (roadside eateries), 10 hotel sheds, 25 garages and 30 furniture showrooms during the day-long operation, it said.
