Demolition of SP Leader's House Sparks Political Controversy

Authorities demolished the house of SP leader Ayub Siddiqui over encroachment on government land, sparking protests. Officials claim the house was on pond land, while SP argues political motives behind targeting. Police sealed the area to prevent unrest, although Siddiqui claims the matter is still sub judice.

The administration has demolished the house of Samajwadi Party district vice-president Ayub Siddiqui in Haiderpur Nangola, alleging it was encroaching on government land.

The move has ignited protests from party workers, who decry it as a politically motivated attack. The demolition occurred despite Siddiqui's assertion that the matter is pending in court.

Local authorities maintain the house was built on government-owned pond land, a fate shared with roughly 42 others in the area. Security has intensified, with police restricting access to prevent further confrontation.
