SHILLONG, July 20: The five-member team of the Indian Institute of Technology Guwahati (IIT-G) which is conducting an audit of the under-construction Assembly building at New Shillong Township is likely to submit its report only after August.
An official associate with the project said the IIT-G team is auditing the right and left wings of the building and ascertaining the damages caused due to the collapse of the 70-tonne central dome on May 22.
A preliminary report submitted by the IIT-G team to the PWD (Buildings) had found the structure to be intact. The collapse of the dome did not damage the left wing apart from causing minor cracks, the report had said.
