The Jaipur Municipal Corporation (JMC) Heritage on Saturday sealed three commercial establishments for not procuring fire No Objection Certificate (NOC).
The action was taken after issuing the notices to the violators. The corporation sealed OK tower on Ajmer Road, Gulabi Nagar restaurant near Collectrate circle and Vishal Mega Mart.
An official said, “The commercial establishments were operational without obtaining fire NOC. We have identified more violators and action will be taken against those who are not adhering to the norms.”
The fire department of JMC-Heritage has identified over 2,000 commercial properties in the city that do not have the fire NOC. Despite several warnings in the past, most of the commercial buildings in the city do not have fire NOC. Now, JMC-Heritage has started this campaign that will continue till next month where notices will be served to commercial building owners.
An officer of fire wing said, “We have already sent more than 600 notices to various commercial building owners. Moreover, we are also making people aware of the importance of fire NOC. If all the building owners deposit the fire NOC amount, then it is expected to give more than Rs 50 crore revenue to the corporation.
