Ghaziabad Launches 'Operation Clean Sweep' Targeting Crime and Illegal Madrasas in KhodaPreviousNext

Following the murder of 17-year-old Surya Chauhan in Ghaziabad's Khoda area, authorities launched 'Operation Clean Sweep,' a comprehensive crackdown targeting criminals, illegal constructions, and unauthorized madrasas. Over 1,600 individuals with criminal records are under scrutiny, with door-to-door verifications and warnings issued. Three unregistered madrasas were sealed after inspections, and bulldozer action against illegal encroachments is planned. The operation involves police, paramilitary forces, and administrative teams aiming to restore law and order through legal enforcement and community monitoring.
