A social media post by Trinamool Congress (TMC) MP and former cricketer Yusuf Pathan has triggered a storm in West Bengal over an ancient mosque in Malda.
"The Adina Mosque in Malda, West Bengal, is a historic mosque built in the 14th century by Sultan Sikandar Shah, the second ruler of the Ilyas Shahi dynasty. Constructed in 1373-1375 CE, it was the largest mosque in the Indian subcontinent during its time, showcasing the region's architectural grandeur," Pathan wrote on X on Thursday with photos at the archaeological monument.
