Calcutta HC Orders Demolition of TMC Leader's Illegal House
Imagine a politician built a big house on land he wasn't supposed to.
The court found out and said the house wasn't built correctly.
They've ordered the house to be knocked down!
The house was built by Jayanth Singh, a politician.
The local government said the house was illegal before the court did.
It's like building a fort where you're not allowed.
The owner of the land was also asked about the house.
This news caused a lot of arguments among different groups.
There was also an old case involving the politician being accused of hitting people with others.
The Calcutta High Court ordered the demolition of a house in Kamarhati.
The house was built by TMC leader Jayanth Singh.
The house was built after illegally occupying a plot of land and filling part of a pond.
The Kamarhati Municipality had previously declared the house illegal.
Singh was involved in an assault incident the prior year.
