The residents, following the intervention of Maharashtra Chief Minister Prithviraj Chavan, had on June 22, 2014, apologised to the civic body for the inconvenience caused to them.
The residents had petitioned to President Pranab Mukherjee, requesting him to stay the demolition of the illegal flats on “humanitarian grounds.”
The Supreme Court had on June 3 dismissed the plea of the residents of the illegal flats against an earlier order asking them to vacate their apartments by May 31.
Civic authorities cut power supply to the Campa Cola society residents.
