Speaking on the occasion, the Lt Governor said that the board, now operating as per Central Waqf Act, will bring transparency in the administration of waqf properties and provide an enabling environment for utilization of properties for larger benefit of the community.

“I have been told that there are more than 32,000 registered waqf properties in J&K today. Many of these properties have the potential of generating considerable returns, which in turn could be used for the socio-economic development of the community”, the Lt Governor added.

The Lt Governor further said that the Waqf Board should sow the seeds of friendship and goodwill among communities through impactful social welfare initiatives aimed at bringing positive changes in the lives of ordinary citizens.

“In India, we have always followed and promoted the principle of ‘Sarva Pantha Sambhav’. This invaluable Indian tradition has to be nurtured by all of you through the Waqf Board in the UT with your social welfare activities and developmental actions in the coming times”, he added.

The Lt Governor also noted that the J&K Waqf Board under chairpersonship of Dr. Darakhshan Andrabi is now empowered for survey of waqf properties, maintenance of waqf deeds, revenue generation, and prevention of encroachment of waqf properties.
