There are also reports that in August 2015 Shitap, who was the secretary of the building, had carried out a structural audit of the building using a private firm from Goregaon. On July 21 BMC officials inspected the premises and submitted a report stating that hospital activity had ceased. A civic official from BMC’s N ward said Shitap had filed an application to cancel the licence given to Khade in June 2017 as he intended to secure another. It is for this reason that Shitap was carrying out renovation inside the three flats he owned. “Shitap had offered Khade a partnership to run the hospital which she had refused and hence he had now tied up with a orthopaedician from Ghatkopar with whom he was to re-start it,” said a source. Sources said Shitap had discontinued the lease as she had allegedly defaulted on rent. ![]() Police on Thursday recorded Khade's statement. Meanwhile, Dr Padma Khade who was running the nursing and maternity home until recently, remained unavailable for a comment despite repeated attempts. ![]() TOI on July 28 had reported about the use of metal props and angles in the ground floor flats at Siddhi Sai to provide support to the structure during renovation work.
