Alwar temple demolition: BJP takes out 'aakrosh rally', raises 'Jai Shree Ram' slogan

Amid growing controversy over the demolition of a  300-year-old Shiva temple in Rajasthan's Alwar, the state government on Monday ordered suspension of three officials including a Sub-Divisional Magistrate (SDM), reported news agency ANI. Rajgarh SDM Keshav Kumar Meena, Rajgarh Municipality Board chairman Satish Duharia and Executive Officer (EO) of the Nagar Panchayat Banwari Lal Meena were among the suspended officials. A 300-year-old Shiva temple was demolished using bulldozers last week by local authorities, which claimed that the drive was carried out to clear encroachments in the Sarai Mohalla of Rajgarh in Alwar district.
