Rumors have been leading to stampedes that have claimed several lives in different parts of India.

The mosque was primarily constructed using materials, pillars, and carved stones salvaged from pre-existing Hindu and Buddhist structures belonging to the Pala-Sena era (8th to 12th century).

"The proposed church would come up within a stone’s throw from the existing Mariyamman Temple. There are only a handful of Christian families. If a large church is proposed to be constructed in the vicinity of the Mariyamman Temple, mala fide intentions cannot be ruled out," the court observed.

The reader is duped into assuming that the accused most likely comes from an upper caste and has political influence.
