A 15-member delegation from the Samajwadi Party is set to visit Sambhal, Uttar Pradesh, following recent violence sparked by a court-ordered survey at the Shahi Jama Masjid. The party announced this on Friday.

However, local authorities have enforced prohibitory orders, preventing any groups from entering the district on Saturday, amid ongoing tensions.
