The village of Bhojpur below the Police Station in Chilcana in the Saharanpur district in Uttar Pradesh remained tense on Friday (May 30, 2025), the day after the administration was demolished by a mosque built on private land, which was submitted as illegal.
Delegations of various political parties, including congress, visited the area to attract peace. Local deputy Lok Sabha Imran Masood, who led the Congress delegation, said the matter would be made on the relevant forums.
“The law on religious subsidy does not mention that permission is required to build a structure; it only requires intimation. Second, if the administration has demolished the structure where the order of demolition is? He said that the injured parties would contact the Supreme Court and the High Court, referring to the breach of legal proceedings.
Mr. Masood added that at the time of demolition no one did not confront the administration to avoid escalation. “We did not want to give them an apology for use; therefore, people showed a restriction. The fight will be in court,” said Saharanpur.
According to the district administration, the local police were informed about the construction a few days ago. Chilkana officer reportedly visited the place and stopped the construction, referring to the lack of permits. Despite this, the construction was reportedly continued, leading to the demolition of the structure of 29. May under a heavy police presence.
“We have received instructions from the local civil administration to provide strength because the illegal structure was constructed without proper permission. I am not dedicated to the exact nature of the structure. Our task was to maintain peace during demolition.
