Will approach civic body for land, says caretaker of two demolished mazars

Saturday, 08 April 2023 | Staff Reporter | New Delhi

The caretaker of two ‘mazars’, demolished during an anti-encroachment drive by the New Delhi Municipal Council (NDMC), on Friday said he will approach the civic body with a demand for allocation of land nearby to set up the tomb-shrines.

The two mazars, located opposite the Sunehri Bagh mosque near Udyog Bhawan, were demolished in the early hours of Sunday as part of a series of drives being conducted by the NDMC against encroachments on footpaths.

 Shahbaz Ahmad, 34, who had been taking care of the shrines since 2020, said that the Waqf Board has already been informed about the removal of the holy shrines and they are looking for a way to set up the structures again.
