Construction of road on Wakf land of Toli Masjid, overlooking Tribunal orders

Hyderabad: TS Wakf Board has failed to protect the wakf land of Toli Masjid, Karwan.

Despite sending a letter by CEO of Wakf Board, Mr. Shahnawaz Qasim to GHMC, Road Development Corporation did not stop the construction work of the road.

The interesting thing is that Tribunal of TS Wakf Board had issued injunction orders on 25th January 2016 but this was also overlooked.

It may be mentioned that there is a wakf land admeasuring 27 acre and 30 guntas under Toli Masjid. Most of it has been occupied by illegal occupants under the patronage of anti-social elements and political leaders. There is no say of Wakf Board officials in police and revenue departments. The proposal for conducting joint survey of Wakf Board and Revenue Dept. is pending for the past so many years. Whenever the officials of Wakf Board reach the spot for conducting survey, they faced anti-social elements.

The local residents complain that there is no one to take interest of this valuable property. Due to the negligence of Wakf Board Officials, the ambitions of illegal occupants have been increasing.

Mr. Osman bin Mohammed Al Hajiri, President, Deccan Wakf Properties, Protection Committee filed a petition in Wakf Tribunal under OS number 80 of 2013 requesting the tribunal to stop illegal construction. The presiding officer of the tribunal issued injunction orders on 26th January 2016 for stopping construction work.

CEO of Wakf Board also wrote a letter to GHMC on 10th May requesting for stopping the construction but this letter has also been overlooked.

Chairman of Wakf Board and CEO are requested to visit the spot and save this property.
