Concerns are mounting over road construction on Waqf land belonging to Toli Mosque in Karwan. Activists allege that this property has been subject to encroachment for the past 25 years, causing significant unrest among local residents.
Activists have claimed that a cement concrete (CC) road is being laid without following due process for land acquisition and without providing compensation to the Waqf Board. They argue that this constitutes a clear violation of established procedures.
The road is intended to improve connectivity between Puranapul and Langar Houz. However, the development's location on Waqf land has sparked controversy and opposition.
Advocates are demanding that Waqf lands be protected and that proper procedures be followed when they are utilized for public or private purposes. They contend that the current construction is unlawful.
This incident highlights broader issues concerning the protection and management of Waqf properties in Telangana. There is a clear need to find a balance between government development projects and the rights associated with religious endowments.
