Waqf Board Claims Ownership Of Entire Hindu Village, Including Temple Land in Tamil Nadu

Wakf Board land claim at Thiruchendurai: Temporary exemption for title deed registration.

Chennai, Sep 15 A peace meeting held at Srirangam between affected parties, HR& CE department officials, police, revenue officials, and Wakf Board representative has decided that the title deeds in Tiruchendurai village can be carried out as usual.

Villagers in Tamil Nadu's Thiruchendurai were in for a surprise after they learned that their entire village has been declared as property of the state Waqf Board.

A major controversy had erupted in the Tiruchendurai area when the Joint III Sub-Registrar of Tiruchi asked a person, Rajagopal, who owns one acre of agricultural land in Tiruchendurai village to get a No Objection Certificate (NOC) from the Wakf Board for getting the deed registration.

An official informed that all the land of Thiruchendurai village belongs to the Waqf Board and if anyone wants to sell off the land, they will have to secure a NOC from the board in Chennai.

People took the matter up before the Tiruchi district collector and threatened to carry out a series of agitations against the Wakf Board claim. Local people also said that they had "Patta", "chitta", "Adangal", and encumbrance certificates issued by the revenue department with them and that the claim of the Madeen academy was false.

During the meeting held at Srirangam on Wednesday, it was decided that the registration of title deeds in Tiruchendurai village would take place as usual and that there was no hindrance to it.

Tamil Nadu Inspector General of Registration has taken up the matter for further investigation and detailed inquiry on the claims made by the Wakf Board.

It may be noted that the Tamil Nadu Wakf Board is a statutory body that supervises and manage the Wakf institutions and properties in the state.
