"A committee for verification of the work and conduct of officials working in the Waqaf/Ziyarats during the time of holding the charge as Chief Supervisor in the accumbency of Bashir Ahmed Shah is hereby framed to check the complaints and action taken by him, so that proper action could be taken against such officials if found guilty or otherwise so that proper picture could come to light for their retention in the establishment" read the order No. AWS/KTW/2016/746-54 issued by the administrator. Both the committees had been requested to submit their reports in 15 days.
It is pertinent to mention that funds to the tune of several lakhs were spent on unplanned construction in the name of Waqaf Ziyarats without taking the approval of Waqaf Counsel Jammu and Kashmir by the former administrator Auqaf Islamia Kishtwar early this year. The construction was allegedly carried by the close associates of the former administrator who according to sources had no experience in construction work while at the same time there were allegations of misappropriation of the funds as well as substandard construction work.
The sources further informed that funds worth lakhs were embezzled by the Auqaf employees, but no recovery was made from them till last reports came in despite the fact that charges of embezzlement were proved against some of the officials, beside there are also reports of selling of some "Chadars" in open market by some employees without following the rules and regulations. The sources said that newly posted administrator who is facing financial crisis to run the 111 year old Waqaf School namely Islamia Fareediya School is also likely to take action against some of the offering collectors who were caught on CCTV for embezzlement of offerings offered by the pilgrims at the Shrines of 17th Century Sufi Saint Hazrat Shah Mohammad Fareed Ud din Baghdadi (RTA) and Hazrat Shah Mohammad Asrar Ud din Baghdadi (RTA). |
