Surat’s Demolition: 100+ Homes Razed to Rubble, But No Govt Agency Claims Responsibility!

A massive political controversy has erupted in Surat’s Katargam area after a "ghost demolition" flattened over 100 homes in Nasirnagar. On May 30, bulldozers rolled in without prior warning, reducing entire settlements to rubble under apparent police and civic supervision. Yet, nearly two weeks later, a deep mystery looms as the Surat Municipal Corporation (SMC) explicitly denies ordering the drive, claiming teams were only present for land demarcation. With families left completely homeless and protests flaring outside the Municipal Commissioner's residence, a newly formed six-member inquiry committee scrambles to answer: who actually authorised the bulldozers?
