Mumbai: Demolition Of Illegal Portion Of Dharavi Mosque Underway After Massive Uproar
Mumbai: Demolition efforts began at the Mahboob-e-Subhaniya Mosque in Dharavi in the wee hours of Monday in order to eliminate the illegal portion of the structure. The razing efforts were focused on a minaret, with a green curtain erected around the section as wooden supports were used for the dismantling process. According to reports, the demolition was peacefully carried out by the mosque authorities.
Protests In Dharavi Against Demolition
The uproar surrounding the structure escalated on September 21 when the mosque committee requested a week to dismantle the illegal portion of the structure themselves. The Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation (BMC) had deemed a 20-foot minaret of the mosque illegal.
Tensions in the area escalated earlier that day when thousands of Dharavi residents took to the streets to oppose the BMC’s demolition plans. Protesters prevented municipal officials from entering the lane where the mosque is located, leading to a standoff. Crowds gathered outside the Dharavi police station, blocking roads and voicing their opposition.
In connection with the protests, three individuals were arrested by the police for obstructing government work, inciting riots and damaging public property.
Provocative Posts Led To Protest In Dharavi
According to police reports, several provocative social media posts from anonymous accounts called for mass participation in the Dharavi protests. As a result, an estimated 5,000 people gathered, with many participants reportedly coming from outside the area. During the demonstration, two Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation (BMC) vans were vandalised, their front glass shattered by bamboo sticks and stones.
The large crowd also caused major traffic disruption. However, both the Dharavi police and traffic police managed to clear the roads by making loudspeaker announcements. Fortunately, the crowd complied, allowing buses and vehicles to pass, preventing further escalation of the situation.

Sameer Wankhede targeted in The Baddest of Bollywood; Delhi High Court orders removal of objectionable content from controversial series in defamation case

Mumbai: The Mumbai-Delhi High Court has strongly criticized Red Chillies Entertainment Shah Rukh Khan, Gauri Khan and others in the defamation case against NCB Zonal Director IRS officer Sameer Wankhede and said that artistic freedom does not mean mocking a person. After this, the High Court has ordered that the controversial footage related to Sameer Wankhede be removed from the controversial Netflix series The Bads of Bollywood. Sameer Wankhede had filed a petition in the High Court and pleaded that his character has been killed in The Bads of Bollywood and this series has been made to target him. The purpose is to humiliate and mock Sameer Wankhede. After watching some parts of this series, the High Court has ordered the removal of the controversial parts from the film.
Sameer Wankhede’s lawyer had told the court that the character portrayed in the film is a comparison to Sameer Wankhede and that this series has been created with the intention of tarnishing Wankhede’s image. The Bads of Bollywood is malicious, therefore, the above-mentioned controversial scenes and objectionable dialogues should be deleted from the series, on which the court has issued an order to delete the controversial and objectionable content and content. Earlier, while hearing Sameer Wankhede’s petition, the court had sent notices to Shah Rukh Khan’s Red Chillies, Netflix, Meta, and social media platforms and directed them to file a response. To this, Red Chillies had called the film and series a drama and made it clear that it had nothing to do with the facts. However, despite this, the Delhi High Court inquired whether a film drama does not mean that someone’s character is killed and said this, it reprimanded Shah Rukh Khan and the film company. Sameer Wankhede tried to prove through his argument that the character portrayed in the film resembles Sameer Wankhede and that this character has been portrayed in a negative way to target him and in this, an attempt has been made to make fun of Sameer Wankhede through this character, which has humiliated Wankhede, which the court has accepted and issued a directive to delete the objectionable and controversial content. This is a big success for Sameer Wankhede, while Shah Rukh Khan has suffered a huge setback.
