The district administration in Sambhal, Uttar Pradesh, has issued notices to caretakers of 123 properties marked by dangerously dilapidated structures.

Officials highlighted that some buildings are ASI-protected, or within 100 meters of disputed sites. District Magistrate Rajender Pensiya confirmed the actions taken by the Sambhal Municipal Council to address these structural perils.

Amid security measures reminiscent of past arrangements for Friday prayers, a peace committee meeting urged residents to uphold harmony, referencing unrest from last November's survey in the Kot Garvi area.
