'Only medical college, academic block had approval': Why 38 buildings at Azam Khan-founded university face demolition

The Rampur Development Authority ordered the demolition of thirty-eight buildings at Mohammad Ali Jauhar University. Officials stated these structures were built without approved building plans, violating planning laws. The university argued its jurisdiction was not under the authority when constructions began. However, the RDA rejected these claims, citing mandatory approval requirements at the time. This action has sparked political accusations against the ruling government.
