India’s Ujjain tense as mosque partially demolished for Hindu pilgrimage

In Ujjain, Madhya Pradesh, Muslims held a night vigil to prevent the partial demolition of Shahi Mosque to widen the road for a Hindu pilgrimage festival held every 12 years. Zeeshan Khan, 30, said he has not slept properly for three nights due to the tension. This incident is part of a broader pattern of partial or full demolitions of Muslim sites across BJP-governed states, often carried out without court approval, amid accusations of a deliberate campaign targeting Muslim religious structures by the Hindu nationalist government.
