'Jauhar University, किसानों की ज़मीन पर बनी है' Rampur | Faisal Lala | Azam Khan

Описание: In the historic streets of Rampur, Uttar Pradesh, known for its iconic Rampuri knives and grand architectural heritage, a ground report by Khabargaon team uncovered a starkly different narrative about Azam Khan, long regarded as one of the most influential Muslim leaders in the state. While Azam Khan faces fresh scrutiny over the illegal constructions at Mohammad Ali Jauhar University, local residents and activists paint a picture of alleged tyranny, land grabs, and widespread oppression during his years in power. Speaking exclusively with the team, Rampur’s native resident, activist, and Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) leader Faisal Lala, who has witnessed Azam Khan’s politics since childhood, shared shocking allegations. Faisal Lala claimed that Azam Khan’s influence led to the bulldozing of madrasas, demolition of orphans’ homes, destruction of the city’s historic gates, and even instances of livestock theft like goats being taken. His family has fought legal battles against Azam Khan for nearly two decades. Lala described how his own 40 shops at Bareilly Gate were allegedly demolished overnight, associates intimidated, and false cases slapped, highlighting what many locals call a reign of fear that stifled progress in Rampur to maintain dominance. These ground accounts contrast sharply with Azam Khan’s public image, revealing deep resentment among ordinary citizens, including poor families and businessmen, who accuse him of misusing power for personal and institutional gains, particularly around Jauhar University developments. As protests erupt over proposed demolitions of unauthorized buildings at the university, Rampur’s voices highlight a complex legacy of both representation and reported repression.
