Dr Andrabi thanked the people of J&K for their relentless support to the NBoard in the reformist measures taken to ensure transparency & accountability within the working system. She said that Waqf has suffered a lot during the past many decades because of political misuse of the properties of the Waqf. “Waqf encroachments of hundreds of kanals in J&K during the past many decades is a huge land scam which needs to be exposed and action needs to be done against those who allowed this encroachment & grabbing for political favours ,” said Dr Andrabi. She said that we are tabulating the records & the data and a complete report will be put before the public with complete evidence before legal action is recommended. “Whoever has looted or grabbed or misused even an inch of the property of the Waqf will be liable to legal action.
