HC Halts Demolition Of Mumbai School After BJP's 'School Jihad' Claim

Mumbai's BMC began demolishing a school after BJP leader Kirit Somaiya alleged "school jihad," but the Bombay High Court halted it, granting interim protection. The school trust challenged the action, citing political vendetta. The court questioned the haste, noting a statutory remedy was pending. The school caters to nearly 600 students from weaker sections.
