Police thwart protest against irregularities in Waqf Board

Several organisations tried to stage protest against intervention of higher officials of Minority Welfare Department in protection of Waqf properties and withdrawal of action against the offenders here at Hajj House. However police did not give permission for the protest. Heavy police force was deployed at Hajj House and tried to stop the protest dharna.

Tanzeem-e-Insaf, Deccan Protection Waqf Society and other organisations had decided to stage protest under the leadership of ex-MP (Rajya Sabha) Aziz Pasha. An application was submitted in the police station in this connection however the police refused to give permission for the dharna at the eleventh hour.

Expressing anger over police attitude, Mr. Aziz Pasha condemned effort to stop democratic protest. He said people have right to protest in democracy hence the several organisations had decided to stage protest in order to draw higher officials’ attention towards irregularities in Waqf Board.
