High Court Dismisses Petition Over University Demolition Notice
A court in Allahabad said no, the trust that runs a university can’t stop the city from tearing down some of its buildings.
The city wants to demolish 38 out of 40 buildings because they were built without proper plans.
The court gave a temporary pause so the demolition can’t happen right now.
Students and the university are protesting.
The final decision will be made later, and the deadline for the demolition is July 30.
Allahabad High Court dismissed Maulana Ali Jauhar Trust's petition regarding demolition notice for university buildings.
An interim stay has been ordered, halting demolition of 38 of 40 campus buildings.
Rampur Development Authority had directed demolition within 15 days, citing unapproved building maps.
The university, founded by Samajwadi Party leader Azam Khan, is currently under protest by students.
The final hearing will determine whether the demolition order stands, with the deadline set for July 30.
