NEW DELHI: Delhi deputy chief minister Manish Sisodia has promised to launch an investigation into the issue of DDA taking over land of Waqf board.
According to AAP MLA Amanatullah Khan, the Delhi Development Authority (DDA) has acquired 382 of 1977 properties of Waqf board and plan to construct parks at kabristan (graveyard).
“As per the Gazette notification, properties of Waqf board can’t be transferred so the probe should be ordered to know how lands were acquired by the DDA. L-G is supporting DDA in the matter,” said Khan.
Other MLAs supported Khan in the matter and said that if DDA is unable to return the property, it must pay the rent for it.
“Earlier people use to donate land so that it can be used for the betterment of the community. These lands are now acquired illegally by DDA,” said Naresh Yadav, party MLA.
