Kolkata Airport Mosque Passes Suspended for Safety Concerns

In a surprising move, Chief Minister Suvendu Adhikari has decided to halt entry passes for prayers at the Bankra mosque near Kolkata airport. Why? Safety concerns due to its close proximity to the runway! This 130-year-old landmark is now facing a tricky balancing act between community traditions and modern safety rules. Worshippers will have to adapt, but the mosque still welcomes individual prayers.
