Arbitrary Demolitions in Kutch: 30 Structures, Including Mosques and Homes, Razed Amidst Allegations of Due Process Denial

Over 30 Muslim-owned structures, including mosques and homes, were demolished in Gujarat's Kutch district during an 'anti-encroachment drive'. Residents allege no notice was given, and due process was denied. The Jamiat Ulema-e-Hind (JUH) delegation found 30 structures demolished, including 11 religious sites, with 25 Muslim youths arrested. Local activists report similar demolitions in Nana Varnora village, with civil rights groups seeking accountability for what they call arbitrary actions disproportionately affecting Muslims.
