Why? Because the facts are messy, the politics are louder, and the Constitution is still being tested. In 2024, the Court banned punitive demolitions; no more tearing down homes as punishment without due process. But since then? Reports say it’s still happening; especially against Muslims. The Court didn’t deny it. It just said: 'Let the High Courts figure it out.' And while interim relief stays, the real battle over constitutional rights is shifting to state benches. This isn’t about legality anymore; it’s about whose homes get demolished, and who gets to decide.
