An officer of Mumbai Police said the LED light fixed to beautify the grave appears to have been put on August 18 on the eve of Badi Raat.

Police said the woman, a Tikri resident, was attacked by the man who was attempting to steal her phone when she was on her way to visit a friend at Tajpur Pahari in the Badarpur area of Delhi. The beautification of the grave with the help of granite and marble was done five years ago. Tour operators feel that this has “instilled a fear and will affect the business however it will be short-lived.” A fire also broke out at Hotel Savvy Grand, Gomti Nagar on April 13 this year. A video of a woman fighting off a man who was allegedly trying to steal her phone in the national capital has surfaced on social media. “Why did BJP allow a grand funeral for Yakub Memon when they were in power in the state as well at the Centre,” Londhe said countering allegations made by the BJP over minority appeasement. The question here is why the body was handed over to the family. Fadnavis, who heads the home department, asked the police to probe the issue through a high-level committee. “The beautification of the grave happened during the previous Thackeray government. Shambhuraj Desai, the excise minister in the Eknath Shinde government who is from the Sena’s Shinde faction, stood up in defence of the previous government. The beautification of the grave would not have happened without the knowledge of the then chief minister. It began with Marathi news channels running a story on the grave of the bomb blast convict being beautified and turned into a memorial. Deputy chief and home minister Devendra Fadnavis announced a high-level committee to probe the issue.
