The Indore Municipal Corporation on Wednesday served a fresh evacuation notice to the occupants of the dilapidated house here which made headlines last week when BJP MLA Akash Vijayvargiya assaulted a civic official while opposing its demolition.

On Tuesday, the Madhya Pradesh HC had dismissed a petition filed by the family which lives in the house seeking a stay on demolition.

Municipal commissioner Ashish Singh said the family has been asked to vacate it by Friday, and then the structure, declared dangerous due to its condition ahead of monsoon, will be pulled down. The family was also informed that it can stay for three months in a flat in a building constructed for people from the economically weaker section in Bhuri Tekari area, he said.
