What is Special About Saharanpur?
Saharanpur offers a distinctive fusion of tradition and contemporary because of its rich historical and cultural tapestry. It is a center for trade and business in the area and is renowned for its thriving markets. The historical landmarks of the city, such as the immaculately maintained tomb of the Sufi saint Shah Haroon Chishti, are what give it value.

These issues are strongly related to the Bahujan Samaj Party’s (BSP) waning power and the Bharatiya Janata Party’s (BJP) initiatives to include Dalits in a more comprehensive Hindutva campaign. As a result, Dalit politics are now practiced differently in the area.
