MEETING WITH UNION MINISTER OF STATE FOR HOME AFFAIRS

(February 16, 2020) I had a meeting at New Delhi with Union Minister of State for Home Affairs Shri G Kisan Reddy. The meeting was held at North Block today. Issues related to the J&K Waqf were discussed in detail. I presented a road-map to the Minister for re-structuring and streamlining of the J&K Waqf Board and apprised  Mr Reddy of the misuse of Waqf assets, properties and resources in J&K for the past seventy years by the ruling political dispensations for their political gains only. I requested the Minister to take concrete steps for the reform of the ailing J&K Waqf Board.

In addition to this an elaborate discussion on strengthening of the sufi & spiritual traditions of J&K by promoting the organisations and individuals associated with the sufi thought in J&K for recreating a peaceful & inclusive social structure in the trouble-hit union territory was held during the meeting.
