Demolition of religious structure in Rajasthan border village sparks political row | Jaipur News
A religious structure in Malana village, Rajasthan was demolished by the Barmer administration following a central government directive to remove illegal constructions near the India-Pakistan border. Ashok Gehlot, the Congress leader, criticized the action, alleging it is aimed at creating tension and polarisation. Amit Shah, the Union Home Minister, had directed authorities to remove encroachments in border areas during a meeting in Bikaner last month. Local residents, however, claim the structure was built on residential land with proper documentation and that donations were used for its construction.
