A probe by The Telegraph found rental ads in London seeking tenants based on religion. Listings on social media used phrases like “Muslims only” and “Hindus only.” Such ads violate the Equality Act 2010, which bans bias in housing. A firm named Roshan Properties posted several such listings before its page was removed. One landlord reportedly refused non-Muslim tenants. The law allows limited exceptions in shared homes. Gumtree said it has strict rules against discrimination and expects users to follow them. (PC: India Today)
