Dargah Demolition

The Supreme Court on Tuesday said it will lay down pan-India guidelines on demolition of properties and any religious structure in the middle of a road, be it a 'dargah' or a temple, "has to go" because public interest is paramount.

The Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation (BMC) on Thursday demolished a dargah in Mumbai's Mahim coastal area after Maharashtra Navnirman Sena (MNS) president Raj Thackeray claimed it was being built on an encroached land.

One person was killed and one injured after a portion of a Dargah collapsed during demolition work by the administration in Karnataka's Bengaluru.
