The action came after the Building Department of North Delhi Municipal Corporation's Civil Lines Zone found that a large porch, one big hall and seven to eight rooms were constructed illegally in the heritage hotel at 7-Sham Nath Marg in North Delhi.
All the illegal structures have been razed, a senior municipal official said.
"The Department deployed 20 employees for the action with four JCBs, gas-cutters and other tools and plants etc. The action was taken with the help of local police," an NDMC statement said.
