Campa Cola demoliton: Deputy Municipal Commissioner Anand Waghralkar today said that the residents had finally cooperated with the civic body today. "Our teams have started work of cutting off the supply of electricity, water and piped gas of the residents and have formed 12 teams for the process," he said.

The Municipal Corporation of Greater Mumbai (MCGM), that started work at 11 am, will continue with it till sunset today, he said.

"We have once again assured residents that we have only come to cut off the essential supplies peacefully as per the orders of the Supreme Court and will do nothing more than this," the MCGM official said.

After backing out from their stand of prohibiting the entry of MCGM officials in the compound, the residents, following the intervention of Maharashtra Chief Minister Prithviraj Chavan, had yesterday apologised to the civic body for the inconvenience caused to them.

The residents of the complex, located in the plush Worli area of south Mumbai, also decided to let the MCGM officials cut the water and power supply to illegal flats.
