Hyderabad: Telangana State Wakf Board chairman, Mohammed Saleem on Tuesday inspected the Wakf properties located at Pahadishareef, Mamidpally, Jalpally and surrounding areas. He was accompanied by officials of the board.
The chairman also inspected the ongoing works at Dargah Baba Sharfuddin popularly known as Pahadishareef taken up at a cost of around Rs.10 crore. The ramp will help families directly reach the shrine located on hilltop. The works were commenced two years ago and are going on at a brisk pace, said Saleem.
The board members said that Wakf has 718 acre of land of Ashoorkhana Ali Saad and Dargah Hazrat Saif Nawaz Jung at Mamidpally. “Attempts are being made to encroach the land and people should be careful before purchasing plots here. The board will reclaim the land at any cost and demolish houses on the Wakf properties,” Saleem said.
He further said that around 2131 acres of land is endowed with the Dargah Sharfuddin and stringent action will be initiated against the encroachers.
“We are seriously following up court cases filed against land grabbers and encroachers. At several places we demolished the houses or shops illegally constructed on Wakf properties,” he said.
Saleem instructed officials to prepare a detailed report on encroachments and evict the encroachers at the earliest. “We are filing police complaints against the land grabbers. Already the State government issued GO 15 to ban registration of the Wakf board,” he reiterated.
