The Shimla Municipal Commissioner Court on Saturday ordered the demolition of the top three floors of a mosque in the district’s Sanjauli area, said the lawyer representing the Waqf Board in the case, reported ANI.

Since early September, Hindutva organisations have been demanding the demolition of portions of the mosque that they claim was constructed illegally.

Tensions regarding the mosque were triggered by a fight between two shopkeepers from different communities and also led to Hindutva groups demanding mandatory registration of migrant workers.
