According to reports, a historic mosque in the northern Indian state of Uttar Pradesh was destroyed on Sunday in order to "widen the road."


Former International Water Cooperation head of the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO), Ashok Swain, posted a video of the mosque being bulldozed on his official Twitter account.




CJ Werleman, a journalist and anti-Islamophobia campaigner, also posted the footage and said that the Hindutva dictatorship had destroyed the mosque under the excuse of enlarging the road.

According to the 42nd Amendment of the Indian Constitution, "India is a secular nation," according to the non-partisan, journalist-run website Saffron Diaries. But the government demolished a historic mosque.

According to statistics gathered from Surinder Khochar, an Indian scholar who studies religious sites in India and Pakistan, the removal of 650 mosques in Amritsar of all sizes serves as more proof of the anti-Muslim campaign.


Thousands of Muslims in the Indian state of Uttarakhand are now at risk of being evicted from their houses as a result of this anti-Muslim narrative.
