A massive political controversy has erupted in Uttar Pradesh following the pre-dawn demolition of a century-old mosque inside the Saharanpur Collectorate complex.The administration carried out the demolition under heavy police deployment, citing a district court order that reportedly described the structure as an illegal encroachment. The action has triggered a sharp political backlash, with opposition parties questioning the timing and manner of the demolition.Authorities also placed Kairana MP Iqra Hasan under house arrest amid concerns over possible local mobilisation, further intensifying the political row. Opposition leaders have accused the BJP-led administration of carrying out a “bulldozer operation” at around 5 AM and alleged that the mosque committee was denied adequate opportunity to pursue legal remedies before higher courts.The administration’s version, the legal status of the structure, the opposition’s allegations and the political fallout are now at the centre of a major debate in Uttar Pradesh.🔴 WATCH LIVE as CNN-News18 tracks all the latest developments, reactions and ground updates. -news CNN-News18 is your trusted source for breaking news, updates, and in-depth analysis from around the world.
