Legal Question in Administrative Law in India
Wakf property - abuse by Custodian
The District Collector Nizmabad who is Mutawali / Custodian of 151-yeat old Wakf registered Masjid in Sy.No. 610, Ext. 230 Sq Yards inside the premises of District Collectorate allowed construction of office building over the Wakf property. As now, a multi-storied building has been raised on the Wakf-Masjid land. Please advise how to and where to approach for recovery of the possession and to make the Masjid functioning. Is it possible to take necessary legal action against the Collector who being Cusodian of Wakf Property abused his powers against the inertest of the Wakf? Can a case be filed in Andhra Pradesh Wakf Tribunal for recovery of possession?
