Soon after being elected unopposed as the new president of Uttarakhand Waqf Board, Mohammad Shadab Shams, a BJP leader, on Wednesday said that the Board’s main priority will be to free Waqf properties from illegal possession and encroachment, and they will buy their own bulldozer to ensure this.
Stating that the Board has discussed the issue with Chief Minister Pushkar Singh Dhami, Shams told The Indian Express, “We are bringing a proposal to run the bulldozer of ‘Dhakad Dhami’ (Fearless Dhami) and the Waqf Board will purchase its own bulldozer.”
Shams, who has served BJP in different capacities and is also a party spokesperson, was handed over the certificate of unopposed election by Principal Secretary (Minority Welfare) L Fanai at the Dehradun Secretariat.
A Waqf Board is a legal organisation that ensures appropriate administration of Waqf properties, and to oversee that any revenue generated by them is being used in line with Muslim principles and law.
“According to a survey conducted after Uttarakhand was formed, there are properties worth approximately Rs 1.5 lakh crore under the Waqf Board,” Shams told The Indian Express. “A lot of these properties are under illegal possession. These properties are for the poor. Our main priority is to free these properties.”
