Supreme Court to hear pleas against “extra-legal” demolitions after protests in Kanpur and Prayagraj

The Supreme Court will hear on Wednesday the pleas against the “extra-legal” demolition of buildings linked to the accused involved in violent protests in Uttar Pradesh’s Kanpur and Prayagraj over objectionable remarks made by now sacked two BJP functionaries on Prophet Mohammed.

A vacation bench of Justices Surya Kant and J. B. Pardiwala is scheduled to hear the petitions filed by the Muslim body Jamiat Ulama-i-Hind.

The Jamiat had earlier filed another plea on the issue of demolition of buildings and other allegedly illegal structures in Jahangirpuri in the national capital.
