Bahraich violence: Maharajganj residents self-demolish their properties, fearing bulldozer drive
In Maharajganj, Bahraich, residents began dismantling parts of their properties after receiving Public Works Department (PWD) notices for alleged encroachment.

Authorities emphasized encroachments disrupt traffic, urging compliance with the demolition orders.
