Sending a letter to Special Secretary Minority Welfare Telangana Syed Omer Jaleel, incharge Secretary Minority Welfare Andhra Pradesh Shaikh Mohammed Iqbal declared the formation of 3-member committee for Waqf Board as unacceptable for Andhra Pradesh. He told that the process of division of Waqf Board is in final phase hence Telangana government does not have right to take one-sided decision regarding the board.
