The Prayagraj Development Authority on Monday demolished the property of Ghulam, who is a close follower of mobster-turned-politician Atiq Ahmed. He worked as a gunman for Ahmed and was also named as an accused in the Umesh Pal murder case.
The Yogi government has stepped up its 'bulldozing drive' in the state. Officials of the Pryagraj Development Authority reached Ghulam's house at Rasoolabad in Prayagraj on Monday where police personnel were deployed in large numbers outside Ghulam's house.
Officials of the Prayagraj Development Authority confirmed the demolition citing that the house was constructed illegally in violation of the prescribed norms and hence it is being demolished.
This comes days after Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath categorically declared in the state assembly that the mafia rule will be decimated in Uttar Pradesh. Umesh Pal and his police constable Sandeep Nishad were shot dead outside his residence in Prayagraj's Dhoomanganj area. Another policeman was injured in this attack.
Atiq Ahmed, the prime accused in the Bahujan Samaj Party (BSP) MLA Raju Pal murder case, is currently lodged in a Gujarat jail.
