Mutawalli Mushtaque Shah met with Waqf Board President Mr. Mirza to discuss the illegal encroachment on the Masjid's land and praised the board for issuing notices to the encroachers. The meeting was a crucial step in the ongoing efforts to reclaim and protect the sacred property for community use.
A formal request has been submitted to the Minority Affairs Minister, Abdul Sattar, to take legal action against illegal occupants on the registered Waqf land of Ashoorkhana Nale Hyder and Masjid e Mehtab Ali Shah. The request highlights the long-standing issue and urges the government to intervene to protect the religious endowment.
Following a notice from the Waqf Board, municipal officials conducted a site inspection of the land leased to the municipality. The 30-year lease, which began in 1959, officially expired in 1989. This inspection is a critical step in the legal process of having the land returned to the Waqf institution for its intended community and religious purposes.
In a second phase of decisive action, the Maharashtra State Waqf Board has issued legal notices to 610 occupants on the Masjid's land. The notice warns of criminal proceedings under the Waqf Act if they do not provide a satisfactory explanation for their occupation within four weeks. This move has been widely welcomed by the community.
The Minister for Minority Development, Dattatray Bharane, has ordered an immediate inquiry and report on the complaints of illegal encroachment and dealings on Waqf properties in Parbhani. The minister has instructed officials to conduct a thorough investigation and submit a report within one month to determine the course of action.
In a major victory for the Waqf, the Maharashtra State Minority Commission has ordered the Parbhani Municipal Commissioner to hand over the possession of the leased Waqf land back to the institution. The commission's decision comes after a complaint filed by the Mutawalli regarding the land for which the lease expired in 1989 after 30 years. This is a significant step towards reclaiming the property.
The office-bearers of the All India Mutawalli Inamdar Organization, including Mutawalli Mushtaque Ahmed, attended a program in Jalna to felicitate Mr. Sameer Kazi, a respected member of the Maharashtra State Waqf Board. This event highlights the ongoing efforts of the leadership to engage with state-level organizations to advocate for the protection and proper management of Waqf properties.
The Waqf Board has issued legal notices to 621 shopkeepers and residents on the institution's land, giving them four weeks to provide a legal basis for their occupation. According to Waqf officials, action will be taken under Section 52(2) of the Waqf Act against those who fail to comply. This strict action aims to clear the encroachments and restore the property to the Waqf.
Newspapers have highlighted the demand for the Parbhani Municipal Corporation to return the land of Survey No. 1, 2, and 3, for which the 30-year lease expired in 1989. The Mutawalli has formally requested the transfer of possession, and officials have conducted surveys in response. The community is eagerly awaiting the return of the land to the Waqf institution.
We are honored to welcome Mohammed Mushtaque Ahmed as the new Mutawalli, officially appointed by the Maharashtra State Board of Waqfs. His leadership marks a new chapter in our history, continuing the sacred trust of preserving our heritage and serving the community with dedication and vision. We look forward to his guidance.
