Assam Madrassa Demolished by Mosque Committee, No Approval
In Assam, a religious school that wasn't approved by the government was torn down.
The local mosque committee did it after the people living there asked them to.
This school had been running for about a year without permission.
The committee also removed a wall around a nearby mosque that was built where it shouldn't have been.
The government in Assam is working to remove buildings on land they don't belong on.
The leader of Assam said that people shouldn't help those who have been asked to leave their homes, because the government is trying to make things better by removing these buildings.
A madrassa operating without government approval was demolished in Assam's Tinsukia district.
The demolition was carried out by the local mosque committee following local resident pressure.
The madrassa had been operating without sanction for nearly a year.
The mosque committee also demolished the boundary wall of a nearby mosque built on a drain.
The Chief Minister stated the government will continue anti-encroachment drives.
