A bench of Justices Arun Mishra and Navin Sinha ordered demolition of the five complexes — Holy Faith Apartments, Kayaloram Apartments, Holiday Heritage, Alfa Ventures, and Jain Heritage — and observed that the state, devastated by last year’s floods, cannot withstand another flood on account of illegal constructions.

Paul Raj Joseph of Alpha Ventures, one of the affected builders, said the builders will move review petitions before the court.

The decision came on a Special Leave Petition filed by the State Coastal Zone Regulations Management Authority (CZMA).
