Activists on Tuesday demanded the demolition of a BBMP building and badminton court in Jagajeevanram Nagar in Chamarajpet, stating the land was once used as a burial ground.

Members of Vishwa Sanatan Parishad have submitted their demands to BBMP Chief Commissioner Tushar Girinath.

According to the letter from the Parishad, a pro-Hindu outfit, there were a total of five graveyards, which saw 5,700 burials till 2019. “Two graveyards have been completely destroyed to make space for the BBMP building.”
