Overview
- Members of the local Muslim community and the mosque committee dismantled the Salempur structures just before a four‑month notice expired on January 4.
- Authorities said the mosque and madrasa were raised 20–25 years ago on 1,339 square metres of government land and had received prior warnings and eviction notices.
- The administration cleared debris at the site and leased the land to 20 beneficiaries for homes under the Pradhan Mantri Awas Yojana.
- Police from six stations and two Provincial Armed Constabulary platoons were deployed, and officials reported a peaceful operation without protests.
- In a separate action, an illegal mosque in Raya Buzurg was demolished under a tehsildar court order, with officials noting earlier notices and no resistance during the removal.
