Bengaluru: Chamarajpet's Idgah Maidan belongs to Revenue Department, rules BBMP
.The Waqf Board intervened and claimed that the 2 acre 5 gunta land belongs to them and the BBMP cannot give such permissions.
The BBMP had written to the Waqf Board to provide documents related to the Idgah Maidan ownership.
Meanwhile, the BBMP Commissioner had earlier said, the land does not belong to them but now the Jt Commissioner has ruled that the land belongs to the Revenue Department.
when a few Hindutva organisations sought permission of the civic body to hold events at the Maidan. This brought out two contrary sets of documents - Karnataka State Board of Auqaf presenting a 1965 gazette notifying the land as Wakf property and 1974 City Survey records and all civic records thereafter showing the land to be a civic playground.
How ever the gazette only listed “Idgah, Sunni, Chamarajpet” in serial number 137, but did not mention the survey number, extent of land, corporation number or the chakkubandi of the land parcel, and hence, was unclear.
My question is who pays the tax? If it belong to wakf should they not have tax receipts? They have no documents but they claim full ...or is it that peaceful need not have to pay tax as the entire earth belong to ola-uber.
