Part of madrasa in Gujarat’s Bhavnagar demolished for road encroachment
Bhavnagar: The Bhavnagar Municipal Corporation (BMC) on Sunday demolished part of the Madrasa-e-Islami Sarvajanik Trust building in the city for encroaching upon a road constructed under a town planning (TP) scheme.
Authorities said that the demolition took place smoothly, with senior officials and district police overseeing the action.
Bhavnagar Municipal Commissioner Narender Kumar Meena stated that the madrasa’s structure was obstructing a 24-metre-wide TP road. “A final order of removal of the portion of the building was passed two years ago after hearing the madrasa authorities and the matter has gone to High Court, but there was no stay order against demolition from the HC,” The Indian Express quoted Meena as saying.
Only the boundary wall and some residential parts of the madrasa have been demolished, Meena added.
