What FACTLY found

Though the photo of the ground shown in the post is beside a temple in KPHB colony (Hyerabad), it is not occupied by Muslims. Every year, Banjaras celebrate Teej festival (seedlings festival) and hold Sant Sevalal Jayanti celebrations in that ground. The flag in the image also belongs to these events
