Samajwadi Party MP Mohibbullah Nadvi’s name on Wednesday surfaced in the violence that erupted in Delhi’s Turkman Gate area. Police will question him in connection with the stone-pelting incident during the demolition drive. Reacting to the development, Mohibullah Nadvi said, “I am not aware of any high court order requiring the removal of encroachments. We were still discussing the mosque’s area and whether or not there was any encroachment. Meanwhile, I received news last night that the mosque had been surrounded by security forces.”
