The Twin Tower Demolition on 28 August 2022 is an unforgettable historical moment, especially for the Residents of Emerald Court who had innumerable hardships due to its illegal existence. To celebrate the victory of Justice over Injustice, of Righteousness over Greed and Corruption, we all celebrated Vijay Diwas on 19 October 2022.
