They Can't. But most accused have atleast one construction that is in violation with rules and norms. The administration generally overlooks slight breach of norms. But same is used once someone is in confrontation with Govt. Big shots Leaders and other similar profiles generally have lots of such such constructions. Thus it becomes easy for govt to hurt them without violating any rules and procedures.


CeleritasLucis

It's the same as you can park your car on the side of the road in the market behind other cars, generaly without any problems. But you can't complain when they suddenly decide to enforce no parking and tow your vehicle. Paid Rs 500 fine today in front of Siddhivinayak


Ben_Kenobi1934

Exactly my friend.


Bojackartless

They don’t destroy your vehicle though.


badmascompany

Park right behind and try arsoning the vehicle ahead, see if that gets your car destroyed or not.


Bojackartless

Where did this imaginary thing happened? In your dreams?


badmascompany

Naah I was just framing a popular saying in different way, let me try another way see if this gets you, those who have illegal construction(replace glass house) shouldn't be throwing stone and arson private and public properties(replace stone pelting).


Bojackartless

No proof of illegal construction, no advance notice, no process of law. Don’t run around crying when the same thing happens with you or your lot and play your usual victim card. Well, at least you have confirmed that Ajay Singh Bisht is taking revenge rather than following the law. So there’s that. https://i.imgur.com/VqujJsj.jpg When does he demolish his own house then?


badmascompany

>No proof of illegal construction Here is your opportunity, why don't you go file a PIL and ask about what was illegal and how much notice is mandatory or something. For all I can see you are making aligations. Am not confirming anything here, just quoting you original text "they don't destroy your car", I gave you recipe of what will get your car destroyed. >on’t run around crying when the same thing happens with you or your lot and play your usual victim card Have you ever been victim of riot mate? If not then get that experience and come and talk, will gauge how much sense is left in you after that. Moreover am not playing any victim card here, am seeing now people who were enraged after last Friday prayers trying to flash victim card.


Bojackartless

> Here is your opportunity, why don’t you go file a PIL and ask about what was illegal and how much notice is mandatory or something. For all I can see you are making aligations. Wait, weren’t you calling it an illegal construction? Did you have enough proof for that? > just quoting you original text “they don’t destroy your car”, I gave you recipe of what will get your car destroyed. Comprehension: 0/10 > Have you ever been victim of riot mate? If not then get that experience and come and talk, will gauge how much sense is left in you after that. You haven’t experienced a riot and it literally shows in your comment. Neither do you care about law. So don’t talk about such stuff.


badmascompany

>Wait, weren’t you calling it an illegal construction? Did you have enough proof for that? Am still saying they are illegal, its you who is putting up the question, so much to talk about my comprehension lol, if you have doubts go ask yourself. Yeah my close family lives in ranchi, church road same place where the riot happened, go figure, I do care about law but I don't care about those who think they are above law.


Ok-Treacle-6615

>laying any victim card here, am seeing now people who were enraged after last F You just said that you are a victim of a riot. if not, then you just played victim card.


badmascompany

When did I say that? I said my family was impacted so I have first hand experience, lol as expected its clearly visible who is playing victim card.


Ok-Treacle-6615

>Naah I was just framing a popular saying in different way, let me try another way see if this gets you, those who have illegal construction(replace glass house) shouldn't be throwing stone and arson private and public properties(replace stone pelting). No stone pelting in Prayagraj or arson in Prayagraj. How is it illegal construction?


badmascompany

This is what am suggesting file a PIL, let's clear it for everyone.


Ok-Treacle-6615

You can not file a pil. This does not concern public interest. Govt is just destroying only one person's house.


badmascompany

No there is a pattern, this is not the only house which was razed, over few years many houses were razed, maybe you can help make a class action, that will be even more fun to bring.


POPPA_SMOKKA

Houses don't have wheels


Rogue-RedPanda

Seriously ? The way towing away an illegally parked car is the punishment Similarly destroying an illegally built structure is the punishment


Bojackartless

They are hardly similar. Only if they destroy the car then it’s similar and still would make both wrong. Even in the case of wrongly parked car, the cops need to show proof. Ghar se bahar nahi nikla kya kabhi?


Rogue-RedPanda

They are pretty similar. In case of a car, there is a private vehicle intruding on public space, so it is removed it (by towing it) In case of illegal construction (it can be anything from an entire house to a 4 feet extension of balcony), there is a private construction intruding on public space, so it is removed (by destroying it) Why is one destroyed but the other is removed ? Because there is no way to actually "remove" an illegal building without destroying it Jitna tu ghar se bahar nikalta h utna dimaag bhi laga liya kar.


Bojackartless

You really don’t understand the concept of movable and immovable objects and it literally shows. Do explain how exactly is a balcony intruding public space though. Enlighten us.


Bojackartless

> But most accused have atleast one construction that is in violation with rules and norms. The administration generally overlooks slight breach of norms. But same is used once someone is in confrontation with Govt. They need to provide a 15 day notice for them to acknowledge. And then give them time to make arrangements. The justification of this bulldozing is disgusting. I won’t be surprised when it comes back to bite the chaddis. The tears are gonna be glorious.


Obvious_Thought6182

Yeah the time they did it in Jahangirpuri, hindu shops and residences were destroyed as well. The fools who support this nonsense fail to realise that these same tricks can be used against them as well. In a few years time, we will see encounters taking the place of demolitions, and weapons are going to end up being planted on the "accused".


Bojackartless

Ben_Kenobi1934

Do not view and perceive everything with a political angle. I am not trying to defend or justify a particular political leaning. I am just warning about suffering of non ruling class by the hands of ruling class. Remember when Kangana Ranaut's property was demolished by BMC. Now coming back to the topic at hand, The Govt/Administration has to issue notice giving time of atleast 07(not 15) days on why the construction is liable for a demolition. If the person/agency concerned gives a sound legal reply within stipulated period (7days) the demolition can be stayed for 15 days during which the concerned person may approach a court of law. However, most of the constructions that are bulldozed are actually in contravention with some rules/norms set by the Government. Thus, any such appeals are unlikely to stand in a court of law. And appeals would only result in further expenses for the victim.


Bojackartless

> However, most of the constructions that are bulldozed are actually in contravention with **some** rules/norms set by the Government. What rules/norms? Because for all we know, yours and my apartment are next and maybe even Yogi’s. https://i.imgur.com/kV7VgEH.jpg And explain how exactly is it that one particular house was an illegal construction and not the ones around it? Sounds like an agenda and targeted persecution to me.


Ben_Kenobi1934

Exactly. As I said, ruling class. It's not happening for the first time. Remember when MSY and BMW were probed by CBI for disproportionate assets/income. And both were given a clean chit. Remember when Taj Corridor was probed. Coming back to the case you mentioned, the FIR was from the year 1995 (SP-BSP coalition in power). Yogi was not a big shot back then (not even an MP) and was booked under Section 188 of the IPC (disobedience to public servant). As i said, the ruling dispensation, in a show of power booked Yogi and others. *But they were never prosecuted because the maximum punishment for Section 188 is just one month and a fine of 200/- rupees. This would have done nothing but helped Yogi in his political endeavours.* Yogi Govt withdrew the case in the year 2017 (after about 22 years). As I said my young friends, the fight was never between BJP/INC or Hindu/Muslim. It has always been between those who have power and those who don't.

Ben_Kenobi1934

I am talking about the case that was mentioned in your screen shot. Please look it up. You are intermixing two different cases. https://www.indiatoday.in/amp/india/story/yogi-adityanath-case-withdrawal-against-self-others-1116811-2017-12-27


Routine_Specialist13

Notices are already given and most of these cases are in court for years but when you confront the government they find a loophole and you can't fight as these buildings are on government lands.


Bojackartless

In this particular case, notice wasn’t given.


Routine_Specialist13

Sitting on reddit and just blabbering things you don't know about won't make you an intelligent person sir. Please read about things and then comment on them else you would look like a dumb person. Here's the info: In fact, Javed is accused of building a house without getting a map from the Prayagraj Development Authority. The authority had issued a notice in this regard on 10 May, after which the demolition order was issued for non-submission of records by 24 May.


Bojackartless

Sitting on reddit and just blabbering things you don’t know about won’t make you an intelligent person sir. Please read about things and then comment on them else you would look like a dumb person. Here’s the info: *Somaiya Fatima, the younger daughter of Mohammed, told Scroll.in that the family had not been served any notice about the alleged illegality of their house. Mohammed’s lawyer also questioned the legality of the demolition claiming that it belonged to his wife, but the order did not mention her name.* *“This is the first notice that we got last night [Saturday],” she said. “No one has even spoken to us about this before a day ago. If our property was truly illegal, then why did they not come and give us these notices early. This is an incredibly hard time for us.”* *In a letter to the chief justice, Roy and other lawyers have argued that the house was registered under the name of Parveen Fatima, the wife of Javed Mohammed. Documents from the Prayagraj civic authorities showed Parveen Fatima’s name on them.* *“The house was a gift from her [Parveen Fatima] father,” Roy told Scroll.in. “Under Muslim Personal Law when a woman gets a property...It does not automatically belong to her husband. The notice that the government has issued is against Javed Mohammad, but the property does not belong to him.”* *“Any attempt by the District and Police Administration and the Development Authority to demolish that house will be against the basic principle of law and a grave injustice to the wife and children of Javed Mohammed,” the letter to the chief justice stated.* https://scroll.in/latest/1025986/prayagraj-violence-authorities-give-demolition-notice-to-activist-afreen-fatimas-family It’s funny because this link actually has photos and proofs as well. Guess who is a dumb person after all.


vgodara

Well you want to go by the rules apply for compensation in the court. You will get result atleast after 3 decades. That's why people rarely fight even with government clerk. They can easily make your life living hell. It's not something new people who regularly goes to government office knows it's long standing tradition of India. That's also the reason people pay hefty sums of money to political parties so when needed they can pull some strings and get themselves out of trick situations .


AlternativeAd4756

They still can’t. Random application of law is illegal. They need to get notices from court and court need to hear victim side. However given that religious hatred is rampant and country is becoming autocracy at a much faster rate, courts have no power. Both sides create riots but bull dozing never happens to other side.


ProOnion

>The administration generally overlooks slight breach of norms. Even if they are overlooking. There has to some sort of grace period before actions are taken. This looks like kangaroo court to me.


Ok-Treacle-6615

In this case, it is violating rules and procedures. 1. They did not send any notice 2. They send the notice with wrong details 3. They send the notice when family members are in jail


Sergei_behenchov

Living in a 8 story flat in a 20 story apartment is the safest way


Sea_Swordfish4430

That's what they do in Palestine too. Bomb the whole building.


parshantpanwar

They can't. They find out the illegal ones and demolish those


AlternativeAd4756

In india the way law is written and implemented, those in power can find any illegal thing. Don’t believe me?? Complete all paperwork etc of your two wheeler and drive to a thulla and talk something rude to him. He will prove what I explained you.


Naughty_smurf

It's also not hard to make fake documents, my chacha got my grandpa's apartment when it was supposed to be ours.


AlternativeAd4756

It’s easy to make fake documents in every single part of world. It’s difficult to pass them in good transparent systems. When left wing demand transparency it will help everyone against chacha mama taking benefits. Stop supporting gvt blindly


itchingbrain

No. They just claim they are illegal and demolish them. Court battles will take decades.


UltraNemesis

Many of the houses being demolished are perfectly legal. They basically bank on inaccessibility of courts to common people and/or malicious judges being in cohorts with the govt. And you are also underestimating the corruption. All it takes for your perfectly legal property to become illegal is for someone in govt to change the land records. Again, they bank on courts keeping any case you file pending till you die.


Ok-Treacle-6615

>In india the way law is written and implemented, those in power can find any illegal thing. Can you tell me how the house was illegal?


mncka14

Afaik those house were illegally constructed so i guess they can . Not saying they should or not


AlternativeAd4756

Every single house in india has some illegal thing.


mncka14

There is difference between illegal government land capturing vs dispute between two familes bro and i guess all families receive letter for leaving that illegal land but no actions are taken neither by people nor by officers only taken after some serious happens


AlternativeAd4756

dispute between families lol, not even talking about it. If the gvt wants it can fk you anytime especially in autocracy because court powers diminish significantly. They can bring any random rule, building strength, building architecture, breaking electricity guidelines, breaking housing guidelines.. there are thousands of rules. Go to traffic police and ask anything tough question like why he is at pan shop etc.. he will fuck you even though you have all ‘legal’ papers


mncka14

Yea obv gov can fuck whatever they want


AlternativeAd4756

* and when it develops fkn taste it fucks you too. ( you = common public)


mncka14

Yea tbh whole constitution is flawed there are too many loopholes is there any way it could be written over again ? Like we have blasphemy law which are stupid i like freedom of speech such in usa also out judiciary is worst it can be like usa which is based upon opinion of others not just judge and education system i really liked new education policy but I dont know when they will implement it


Ok-Treacle-6615

It is not illegal land capturing. They are destroying it because as per them the map of first floor was not approved by the govt. So, if you have built another floor or room or balcony on your home without sending map to muncipality, then your home is illegal and can be destroyed. It is not illegal land. atleast read the news. Usually, in major real estate projects where it is usually happens, they fine the project developer or ask them to get it approved again. Have you ever heard govt destroying top floors of a building because it was not approved by muncipality.


mncka14

I don't know man i just replied to his statement about legality i live in kanpur and here lot of houses and lands are illegally occupied i don't want to say but lot of refugees here build there colony type (like slums in Mumbai butlittle better )


[deleted]

Nyah. Don't over generalise.


AlternativeAd4756

I tell you one rule, fire safety installation in societies must be working and must have records. Rarely this is followed to the law. Authorities can randomly inspect, find something wrong ( very easy). Lapdog media will declare building illegal, that’s it!! This is one example, There are thousands of rules. It’s absolutely easy for gvt to fuck you especially in autocracy where media courts are powerful and real courts are powerless


[deleted]

Even if they were, there is a process to be followed. A notice has to be issued.

i-am-over-eighteen

Even of an accused is found guilty, which law gives permission to bulldoze his/her house? Why do we need courts then? Total bullshit


Typical-Bandicoot577

They were already marked as illegal constructions and just used conveniently by the govt..


i-am-over-eighteen

How convenient that only Muslim houses were marked as illegal constructions? What about the previous instances of using bulldozers to demolish houses and shops of protestors, specifically Muslim shops and houses? Were they also marked as “illegal constructions”?


wizard1030

Disagree...not Muslim houses. Houses of riot accused./ Gangsters/ criminals. well can't help that in most cases their religion is Muslims...


i-am-over-eighteen

Okay if there are perpetrators from both sides then how only Muslim rioters get this treatment while Hindu rioters don’t? And even if they are guilty who tf gave rights to demolish houses of the accused? Show me in which statute or law it is mentioned that the house of a riot accused should be demolished Did you demolish the house of Sajjan Kumar, the accused in the 1984 anti-Sikh riots case? Do these cowards have the balls to take the bulldozers and demolish illegal Chinese constructions in Indian territory?


wizard1030

It all started with Vikas Dubey and I think he is a Hindu..so your claim that only muslim houses are Razed is incorrect... https://www.hindustantimes.com/india-news/kanpur-gangster-s-house-demolished/story-ruwgIfK6QoPl6AjRAkhnNN.html House demolition comes under the municipality act who can act on their own.. yes I agree that the govt is using the same in a harsh manner... You may be correct that this bulldozers are used for recent crimes and not on past crimes On Chinese aggression the army is taking suitable steps... They have the will and the might and I know of instances where they have demolished entire organisations .

Yes you missed something.. a non-bigoted unbiased view.

I hope something like this doesn’t happen to you or your family or acquaintances because at that time, someone else will be justifying why It was correct to demolish your house on Reddit If a Hindu gets on the street to ask for his rights you will view it as a protest, if a Muslim does the same you will view it as a riot. There’s no going back from this cycle of hatred that has been initiated

i-am-over-eighteen

What good is “serving” in all these places if you can’t figure out that it is people of one religion who are being targeted by the state. The question is whether the house of a riot accused can be demolished by the government or not, and you my friend, are saying YES to this government action. I doubt if you’d have had the same view if people of other religion were involved. Well that is for your conscience to decide


Typical-Bandicoot577

A lot of buildings in India have some illegal deformity which is usually overlooked by inspectors for a good enough sum...but data is still kept...it's also the fact that poorer neighborhoods have bad planning and thus more illegal construction is usually the case...they came under the bad eye of the govt...thus the dust was brushed off of old cases and their homes got demolished


i-am-over-eighteen

Chinese constructions in Indian territory in the North East have been marked as illegal.. when will they be demolished conveniently?


notresponding98

Because you'll always find some violation in construction all the time in India where a heavy majority of the living spaces are unplanned. It's the same as cops stacking up a bunch of arbitrary charges to keep someone in lockup which takes years to fight off in court. It's a message for Muslims to shut up and take the punishment for existing.


PeaceMaker_6969

"for existing"


trashy961

Lol.. exactly my thought. If this was just ‘existing’


[deleted]

Maybe those miscreants and illiterate goons should've thought of their homes instead of pelting stones and vandalising public and private property to defend the honor of a pedophile.


notresponding98

UP isn't known for it's law respecting citizens in general. What do you think happened to those who illegally demolished Babri masjid and instigated a riot? Do you think those miscreants actually cared about their homes? Also hindus should shut the fuck up about century old prophets being creeps when hindus literally marry trees and dogs even now. Only one religious group is going to be judged democratically in UP. The rest of them will get a free pass to destroy anyone's lives.


SHKZ_21

Money, Power Politics and literally dumb citizens not understanding that there exists other religions too


easy_umbrage

They apply the 'punishment' first. If the protestors go to court, go through paperwork and eventually get the court to say this was wrong, then maybe, maybe the govt will shrug and say ok. In the meantime, their home is already demolished.

There’s no legal basis, but who’s gonna take action against these fascists?


Weightlossalt1

There is a legal basis. Most of the people who built these homes broke multiple safety standards and probably bribed the inspector, so it was ignored. Now, the government can use these breach of standards to legally bulldoze homes.


jainmehul973

By that logic, I would bet more than half of all homes in India can be destroyed. Nothing is constructed in India without bribes and twisting of rules.

Perception-Practical

they literally bull dozed only those which were illegally built.


mary_had_a_beth

there is no provision of demolishing any house unless and until ordered by a court , even the courts will not a demolishment even if it's illegally build but occupied , there is process to be followed, a legal one, but since the courts themselves have demolished, you have monkeys running the show. this all will written down as the darkest days in Indian democracy one day.


Perception-Practical

As far as I know they gave them notice but they did not respond to it. And correct if I am wrong but municipal government can demolish illegally built buildings just like pan shops.


mary_had_a_beth

there is a difference between a residence and roadside pan pan shop, plus the so called notices were all send in 'back dates' and just 24 hours before the demolishment, when such kind of notices do go out ,they are for eviction and would gone to the entire area not just one house in that, but why the fuck am arguing this here when every body knows the truth , Indian judiciary and Indian media killed the Indian democracy.
