Residents of Ujjain have staged protests after authorities demolished part of a mosque to widen a road. The move has sparked outrage among the local Muslim community.

In Ujjain, a protest erupted after municipal officials demolished a portion of a mosque to facilitate a road‑widening project. The demolition, carried out without prior consultation with the mosque’s leadership, has drawn criticism from local residents and religious leaders.

The protest, which began early this morning, saw a large gathering of Muslim community members and activists demanding the restoration of the damaged structure and a review of the project’s impact on heritage sites.

Authorities have yet to issue a formal statement regarding the demolition or the steps they will take to address the community’s concerns. The incident highlights ongoing tensions between infrastructure development and preservation of religious heritage in the region.
