Owaisi Condemns Saharanpur Mosque Demolition Over Freedom of Religion Concerns

AIMIM President Asaduddin Owaisi condemned the early morning demolition of a mosque at Saharanpur Collectorate in Uttar Pradesh, questioning whether religious freedom applies equally to Muslims. Authorities carried out the demolition after a court upheld orders deeming the structure an unauthorized occupation. Owaisi criticized the timing, alleging the government aimed to prevent legal challenges and accused the BJP of targeting Muslim sites. He claimed the mosque dated back to 1911 and urged approaching higher courts. Officials maintained the action followed legal procedures, while Owaisi challenged the government's adherence to constitutional principles.
