Jahangirpuri violence and Mayor on why bulldozers kept moving there
Jahangirpuri in north Delhi had witnessed violent clashes, including stone-pelting, arson, and firing, between two communities during a Hanuman Jayanti procession on Saturday. Eight police personnel and a local resident had sustained injuries.
Also, the demolition drive came in the wake of recent actions taken by authorities in Madhya Pradesh to use bulldozers to raze properties of those accused of rioting during the Ram Navami celebrations.
Shortly after the Supreme Court ordered demolitions to be paused at Delhi's Jahangirpuri, bulldozers kept advancing, tearing down kiosks and shops and even structures outside a mosque. "The work will continue as the order has not reached us," said the BJP-controlled Municipal Corporation of Delhi (MCD) firmly.
Singh told reporters that the authority wants to tell the people of바카라 웹사이트Delhi that wherever there is any illegal encroachment, it should be removed immediately.
By the time the bulldozers stopped, 20 shops and structures outside a mosque had already been razed.
Among the structures that were razed was a permanent shop whose owner said he had the permission of civic authorities.
"Only temporary structures were removed," Iqbal Singh claimed. When asked about the permanent shop, he claimed that "documents would prove everything".
He said today his team removed encroachment by scrap dealers on public land. "The roads will be cleared and people are happy. It is routine work with no agenda. People are very happy, people are supporting us," he said.
