Malvani Illegal Construction: Cabinet Minister Manglaprabh Loḍha Promises Action for Hindu Community Protection
Cabinet Minister Manglaprabh Loḍha met a victim in Malvani over illegal construction and assured strict action, highlighting security risks posed by Bangladeshi and Rohingya intruders.
Malvani Illegal Construction Controversy
Malvani has witnessed alleged illegal construction allegedly supported by local corporators and MLAs, reportedly sheltering Bangladeshi and Rohingya intruders, according to Cabinet Minister Manglaprabh Loḍha. The minister emphasised that land mafias targeting the Hindu community will face firm action.
Minister Loḍha asserted that these constructions pose serious threats to national security and confirmed ongoing efforts to monitor and address these activities. Senior police officials have also been consulted to ensure effective enforcement.
Victim Background and Construction Details
Ragini Ramashankar Chaurasia, a resident of the Savaria Masjid area, reported illegal construction at her residence. In the Abbasiya Compound, Shaukat Hussain Abid Hussain Sayyad reportedly conducted unauthorised construction next to her home.
The Chaurasia family was allegedly forced to seal their home doors. Local Hindu organisations raised concerns, but Abid and Hussain allegedly ignored protests and claimed the construction was legal. Police inspections later confirmed the project was unauthorised.
Minister Loḍha’s Intervention and Police Response
Cabinet Minister Manglaprabh Loḍha personally met Ragini Ramashankar Chaurasia to assess the situation. Following the meeting, he engaged with journalists and senior Malvani police officials to demand strict enforcement against violators.
The minister highlighted the need to uphold law and order in the area and warned that continued injustice toward the Hindu community would not be tolerated. Sprouts News verified that officials have begun investigations to enforce compliance.
Government Oversight and National Security Context
Prime Minister Narendra Modi has emphasised nationwide law enforcement efforts to provide a secure environment for all citizens. In Maharashtra, Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis’ government has reportedly directed the Home Department to act efficiently.
Minister Loḍha stressed that atrocities against the Hindu community would not be allowed. Violators will face stringent action to prevent future unlawful encroachments and safeguard affected communities.

The Malvani illegal construction controversy underlines tensions between land rights, municipal enforcement, and security concerns related to intruders from Bangladesh and the Rohingya communities.
