Countdown begins for the demolition of the Noida Supertech Twin Towers — both taller than Delhi’s iconic Qutub Minar that is scheduled to be done at 2:30 pm today.
While authorities have already evacuated around 5,000 resident of the two housing societies near the soon-to-be-demolished twin towers, authorities also have another mission – evacuation of dogs.

In photos, dogs were seen being lifted out and carried on the streets of Sector 93. Authorities have also urged residents to make sure their pets are all evacuated from the buildings.

Over 3,700 kg explosives will be used to bring down the structures after an order by the Supreme Court that found the construction within the Emerald Court society premises in violation of norms.
