An anti-encroachment drive was executed near a Muslim burial ground on Moradabad Road in the Chandausi area. Officials reported the operation took place on Wednesday night.
Led by Sub-Divisional Magistrate Vinay Kumar Mishra, bulldozers cleared the encroachments, located next to a railway crossing.
Responding to media inquiries, Mishra explained the operation as part of a broader six-month anti-encroachment campaign, initiated when it was discovered the cemetery's boundary wall extended beyond its designated limit.
Mishra stated encroachments would be removed voluntarily, facilitating pending road construction, and the operation was conducted at night to avoid heavy traffic.
Some graves, previously lying in the encroached area, have now been leveled to clear the obstructions.
