Akbar Nizamuddin is also the Vice-Chancellor of Jamia Nizamia, Chairman of Darulsalaam Cooperative Bank and Secretary/Treasurer of Deccan College of Medical Sciences and Engineering Technology. He had served as the member of State Wakf Board for two terms and was also the member of Central Wakf Council. Speaking to media persons here, Wakf Board Special Officer Shaik Mohammad Iqbal informed that Akbar Nizamuddin has sold away a portion of 867 acres of land under Dargah Shah Khamosh. He sold away 121 acres and 17 guntas of Dargah land at Maqta Khanojiguda in Alwal, Malkajgiri. The sale proceeds were carried out through four persons who were given GPAs by Akbar Nizamuddin. This came to light when the matter went to the Supreme Court and the Collector claimed that the land belonged to the government. He then contended that the land was Wakf Board. Akbar Nizamuddin is accused of sale or misuse of 400 acrs of Wakf land in Maqta Sultanpur of East Hyderabad, 8.3 acres in Ameerguda of Langarhouz Taluqua, 69.30 acres in Maqta Hasan Baig, 266 acres in Mangalanikunta and 9.27 acres of Saber Gulshan in Langar Houz. The Saber Gulshan is a Wakf Mashrootul Qidmat and the same has been converted into a private farm house by Akar Nizamuddin. About 36 shops are also located in Saber Gulshan and Akbar Nizamuddin informed the Wakf Board that he was collecting a rental of nearly Rs 15,000 from 36 shops. He had also secured an NOC from the Wakf Board to set up Shah Khamosh Engineering College of Saber Gulshan property. Iqbal said that the shops and building constructed by Akbar Nizamuddin at Saber Gulshan were illegal. The Wakf Board has also initiated enquiry into the misuse of properties in Afzalgunj and Maharajgunj belonging to Takia Ameer Ali Shah which were being managed by Akbar Nizamuddin. A case has been registered against Akbar Nizamuddin at the Central Crime Station and the Wakf Board took all the properties of Dargah Hazarath Shah Khamosh into its direct management. Iqbal informed that there are 77,000 Wakf properties in Telangana and about 67,000 properties in Seemandhra. He said the drive to restore the Wakf properties would be intensified after the end of election process. Website : http://www.indtoday.com Like : / ind2day Subscribe : / indtoday1 Follow : / ind2day
