DDA demolition drive clears encroachments at Sur Ghat

NEW DELHI:

Bulldozers were deployed early in the morning to dismantle illegal structures as part of a government-sanctioned project, sparking concerns among locals and religious leaders.

The demolition operation, which involved clearing shops, unauthorised structures, and ancient temples, has become a point of contention in the area. Idols from the temples were carefully removed with proper rituals before the temples were dismantled using JCB machines.

According to local officials, the drive aims to reclaim Yamuna's riverbank for developmental projects and to address long-standing issues of unauthorized construction in the region.
