The case is still pending in the court. We demand that this property must be immediately seized and taken over.
Demand equal justice for all
A local resident said, “my house was demolished under the excuse that it was illegal, then why there is no action on the Mosque ? I have been a resident of this locality, and I never received any notice, there was no hearing in the Court. There must be the same principles of justice for all. Like how my house was demolished this illegal construction must be demolished too.
