The district town planner, Vinesh Kumar, stated that the construction of the restaurant was illegal, and it was the same building from where hooligans had pelted stones on a religious procession.

The government and department had previously served notices to the unauthorised hotel-cum-restaurant. Due to the violent incident that occurred during a religious yatra, this action was deemed necessary.

On a related note, earlier on Saturday morning, the Nuh district administration also demolished over 45 “illegal” shops in the Nalhar road area.
