Hasina Fakhroo's home, built under PMAY in November 2021, was demolished following Ram Navami clashes in April. District administration says house stood on encroached govt land.
Rules for demolition of ‘illegal’ structures vary across states, but law requires proper notice in all cases. No law provides for demolishing property of those accused in riots.
Lanes of Khargone’s communally hypersensitive, riot-affected areas are covered with bricks, glasses & tiles, charred bangles, food grains, clothes, & other remains from burnt shops & houses.
Shivraj Singh Chouhan has taken a leaf out of UP CM Adityanath's 'Bulldozer Baba' book to transform himself as MP's 'Bulldozer Mama'. But how far can he go, legally?
In riot-hit Khargone areas, dozens have lost homes and shops in bulldozing campaign. Legal experts question authorities' stated use of encroachment laws to punish another alleged crime.
Contrary to naysayers, the RSS practices what it preaches. It is closer to the Gandhian teaching of improving the individual morally and spiritually to change the external environment.
This is the game every nation is now learning to play. Some are finding new allies or seeing value among nations where they’d seen marginal interest. The starkest example is India & Europe.
