sealed building on MG Road

I have noticed both the buildings on the MG Road between Mehrauli and Ghitorni. I am not sure when this photograph was taken, but the building looks the same even today.
Wow…what a great job of “sealing”! As one can see, it’s sealed so well, the frigging place is practically airtight! Well done, sealing crew!
Cheers,

As usual, great pics!
I hope it all clears up quickly and that the area once again is vibrant.
Did the shopowners get reimbursed adequately?
I have seen similar instances / events elsewhere, almost every where I traveled in urban India. We Indians keep boasting of development-achievements, which remain helf-hearted, take any field, including recent hungama in the Parliament House or Wi-Fi technology involvement in bomb attacks, or Tata’s policy on his Brand Nano…
As I had stint with practice of architecture and town planning for some time, there is nothing that I should be proud of so-called progress and development.
