Heartbeats pounding in Bareilly, illegal construction workers sleepless for 48 hours, 2 marriage halls and pile of debris:

News India Live, Digital Desk: There is always talk of ‘Baba’s Bulldozer’ in Uttar Pradesh, but these days Bareilly The mercury is on cloud nine. The strict attitude shown by the Bareilly Development Authority (BDA) in the last two days has given sleepless nights to the city’s land mafia and illegal encroachers.

After two consecutive days of bulldozer campaign in Sufi Tola, this question is now being raised. “Who’s next?” Because the officials have clearly indicated that this action is not going to stop.

Let us understand in simple language what happened in two days and what is going to happen next.

Shock to those close to Tauqeer Raza!

The story started from Sufi Tola area. The BDA team targeted two big marriage halls here. These marriage processions are said to be close to IMC chief Maulana Tauqeer Raza.

1. Awan-e-Farhat: This was the wedding procession of Sarfaraz Wali Khan.
2. Good Marriage Hall: This was the property of Rashid Khan.

BDA carried out the action in two parts. On the first Tuesday, bulldozers were used and about 40% of the area was demolished. But when the work was not completed, the team again arrived on Wednesday with full preparation and reduced the remaining illegal construction to debris. The wedding halls, which were once bustling with weddings, are now in ruins.

“The picture is still pending” BDA indicated

If anyone feels that the matter will cool down here, then BDA Vice President Dr. A. Manikandan The statement of (Dr. A. Manikandan) must be read. He has bluntly said, “BDA’s action against illegal construction will continue in future also.”

According to experts, the authority has a ‘long list’. Many more commercial buildings and illegal colonies have come on the radar of BDA. Officials are finalizing the files and at any time, the bulldozer can turn on any street.

Market of panic and rumors in the city

Due to this swift action, there is an atmosphere of panic not only in the Sufi group but also in the old city and surrounding areas. The only discussion at the intersections is which wedding procession or market will fall now? Those who have not got the map passed or have suppressed government land, are now digging through old papers.

People are scared that the next bulldozer might stop at their doorstep.

Strict message: If you don’t follow the rules, then it’s okay!

Overall, the Bareilly administration has made it clear that whether it is political influence or muscle power, illegal construction will no longer be spared. This action of BDA is an alarm bell for all those who construct buildings ignoring the rules.

Now it remains to be seen which illegal fort the BDA’s ‘hammer’ will strike next time!
