The old town of Kadapa erupted in protests by Muslims against the Corporation’s plan to demolish the compound wall of the Yakub Sab mosque.
According to the locals, the compound wall guards a burial ground where many spiritual leaders were buried over the past few generations. As part of the road widening plan proposed by the Municipal Corporation of Kadapa, the compound wall was sought to be demolished and rebuilt on the burial ground land. The proposal has not gone down well with the community.
