Gujarat: Over 1,300 houses razed in Rajkot

In Gujarat, a major demolition drive was carried out in Rajkot, where nearly 1,500 properties were issued notices, and 1,119 have been demolished so far. Along the riverbank, 681 of 997 houses have been removed, with around 300 more scheduled to be cleared. In total, 381 properties have been completely demolished. Over 1,300 houses razed in Rajkot in drive against illegal settlements by Tuesday.

The Rajkot Municipal Corporation (RMC) launched a massive demolition drive on Monday, razing a majority of 1,400 illegal settlements spread across a 2.5km stretch in Jangleshwar and along the Aji River. The operation, carried out under tight security following orders from deputy chief minister Harsh Sanghavi, is expected to continue for three days due to the scale of the encroachments. By Monday evening, the RMC had removed over 1,000 structures. The demolition drive, which is the largest-ever by the Rajkot Municipal Corporation, was carried out amid tight security, with the deployment of more than 2,500 police personnel. According to RMC officials, 65 excavation machines, along with tractors, dumpers and other heavy equipment, were deployed at the site early in the morning. About 1,000 RMC workers supervised the operation under police protection.
