What the notification does
The Tamil Nadu Waqf Board issued Gazette Notification No. VI-3(a)/20/2023 to amend Column 7 of the Register of Waqfs for Anjumane Ithihathe Islam Trust, covering its mosque, madrasa and Muslim burial ground at Okkiyam Thuraipakkam in Kancheepuram District. The amendment follows the Board's order in Item No. 53/23, R.C. No. 16620/22/B4/KPM, dated 27 February 2023, and refers to Section 41 of the Waqf Act, 1995.
The notification was signed at Chennai by A.B. Rafiulla, Chief Executive Officer of the Tamil Nadu Waqf Board, on 21 April 2023. It was published in the Tamil Nadu Government Gazette on 26 April 2023.
Property record changed
The Tamil Nadu Waqf Board amendment concerns the particulars of Waqf property entered in Column 7 of the register. The entry relates to Survey No. 408/1A.
The recorded details are changed as follows:
- Survey number: Survey No. 408/1A, unchanged.
- Metric extent: 0.80.0 Ares, unchanged.
- Existing parenthetical extent: 1.97 cents.
- Amended parenthetical extent: 1.97 acres.
The text therefore changes the unit from cents to acres. It does not record a change to the survey number or to the stated extent of 0.80.0 Ares.
Who may be affected
The Tamil Nadu Waqf Board amendment directly concerns Anjumane Ithihathe Islam Trust and the Waqf property register maintained for its mosque, madrasa and Muslim burial ground. It is also relevant to buyers, owners, surveyors, advocates and other professionals examining records connected with Survey No. 408/1A at Okkiyam Thuraipakkam.
Anyone relying on an earlier copy of Column 7 should note that the Gazette shows 1.97 acres as the amended description, rather than 1.97 cents. The notification provides no other amendment to the property particulars.
