Lucknow: The district administration announced on Thursday that they would auction two sealed shops on July 16 to recover damages incurred during the anti-CAA protests in Hasanganj area on December 19. The shops were sealed on June 30 by the administration.
The administration also sealed another shop in Khurramnagar, belonging to Mohammad Nafees, who has been accused of rioting and damaging public property worth Rs 64 lakh at Parivartan Chowk.

“It is an ironsmith’s shop located in Khurramnagar and was sealed after the owner failed to pay for the damages of Rs 64 lakh,” said tehsildar Shambhu Saran. He added that the order to pay for recovery of damages was issued by ADM (east) KP Singh to 28 people on February 19.
He said that if the people whose properties are being sealed pay up the amount, their properties will be opened and auction proceedings will be halted.
The two shops that would be auctioned on July 16 include a garment store called NY Fashion Centre and a scrap dealer shop in the Hasanganj police station area. They were sealed on Tuesday.
Scrap dealer Mahenoor Chaudhary and the garment shop’s assistant store manager Dharamvir Singh are among the 13 whom ADM (trans-Gomti) Vishwa Bhushan Mishra had ordered to pay Rs 21.76 lakh within 30 days for the destruction of properties in Hasanganj.
In all, 57 people across four police stations were served notices for recovery of Rs 1.55 crore in damages.
