Ujjain: Madhya Pradesh ke Ujjain mein Shahi Masjid ke ek portion ko road widening project ke liye hatane ko lekar Monday ko situation tense ho gayi. Proposed action ke khilaf logon ke protest ke beech police aur protesters ke beech confrontation hua, jiske baad stone-pelting report hui aur police ne crowd ko disperse karne ke liye tear gas shells ka use kiya. Area mein heavy security deployment bhi kiya gaya hai.
Ye poora matter Ujjain mein Simhastha 2028 ki preparations se connected road-widening project ka hissa hai. Authorities Kanthal Square se Gopal Mandir ke beech road ko widen karne ki planning kar rahe hain, aur proposed alignment mein Shahi Masjid ka ek portion aa raha hai.
Road-widening action ko lekar local Muslim community ke members ne objection raise kiya aur mosque ke portion ko hatane ka virodh kiya. Reports ke mutabik, log overnight bhi site par gathered rahe, jiske baad Monday ko authorities ke action ke time situation aur tense ho gayi.
Situation बिगड़ने ke baad police ne area mein additional security deploy ki. Rapid Action Force (RAF) personnel bhi spot par maujood rahe. Reports mein police personnel ke injured hone ki bhi information saamne aayi hai.
Is dispute ka legal angle bhi important hai. Madhya Pradesh High Court ne September mein Ujjain Municipal Corporation ke us decision ko challenge karne wali petitions dismiss ki thi, jiske baad authorities ko mosque ke affected portion ko remove karne ki process aage badhane ki permission mili thi. Court ne road widening ko Simhastha 2028 ke traffic management aur public-safety requirements se joda tha.
Wahin, mosque se jude petitioners aur local community members ne proposed removal par objections raise kiye hain. Unka kehna hai ki road widening ke liye religious structure ko affect karne ke bajay alternative alignment ya doosri taraf se land lekar road expand karne par consider kiya jaana chahiye.
Ab Ujjain mein security arrangements tight kar diye gaye hain aur administration situation ko control mein rakhne ki koshish kar raha hai. City mein Simhastha 2028 ke liye infrastructure development ka kaam chal raha hai, lekin Shahi Masjid ka issue ab protest aur police action ke baad aur sensitive ho gaya hai.
