Locals, police clash over 'illegal construction' at Shimla mosque; police lathi-charge to disperse protesters



Prohibitory orders were imposed in Sanjauli on Tuesday following rising tensions over the mosque’s alleged unauthorized construction and a call for a bandh by Hindu organisations demanding the demolition of the disputed structure. The orders, issued under Section 163 of the Bharatiya Nagarik Suraksha Sanhita, 2023, prohibit assemblies of more than five persons without permission and the carrying of lethal weapons including lathis, daggers, sticks, spears, and swords
