Authorities demolished the 700-year-old Lakkad Shah Baba Mazar and three other shrines—Chaman Shah, Bhanwar Shah, and Shahanshah Baba—calling them illegal constructions. Officials issued a notice on June 5 and razed the structures on June 8, ahead of CM Yogi’s scheduled visit. The shrine committee lacked legal documents. This marked Bahraich’s first dargah demolition under such claims.
