Madhya Pradesh: After taking office, BJP Chief Minister Mohan Yadav oversaw the demolition of homes belonging to three Muslim men accused of attacking a BJP worker.
A day after BJP leader Mohan Yadav took charge as the Chief Minister of Madhya Pradesh, his government demolished the homes of three Muslim men who were accused of attacking a BJP worker. This was the first such bulldozer action under the new dispensation. On December 5, Devendra Singh Thakur, the Mandal General Secretary of the BJP Jhuggi Jhopri Cell, faced a sword attack from one Farukh after an argument over election results. After the incident, senior BJP leaders visited Thakur at the hospital and organised demonstrations, deploying stringent action against the accused.
Apart from Farukh, police arrested four other Muslim youth identified as Aslam, Shahrukh, Bilal and Sameer. Bulldozers demolished the residences of three of the men, as officials alleged that they lacked the necessary permissions under the building plan.
