Saharanpur, Uttar Pradesh: The more-than-70-year-old mosque situated within the Saharanpur collectorate premises was bulldozed and flattened by the administration at around 5 a.m. this morning.
After news spread last night that the mosque was to be demolished, a large number of people gathered at the site. During this, the district magistrate (DM) calmed the crowd by saying that the mosque would only be sealed.
However, when people woke up this morning, they found the mosque had been completely razed to the ground.
