Jammu, July 10: Minister of State and Chairperson J&K Waqf Board Dr Darakhshan Andrabi on Monday inaugurated the flooring and paths restoration works at the shrine of Pir Baba Budan Ali Shah (RA) near the airport in Jammu. She had ordered the restoration work at the shrine during her visit a few months ago when she took stock of the facilities at the shrine.
Dr Andrabi issued orders for a few more construction works to be initiated without delay which are needed to update the facilities at the shrine. Mudasir Iqbal (JKAS), the Administrator of Waqf Jammu also accompanied Dr Andrabi.
“J&K Waqf Board has begun a massive restoration and redevelopment initiative in which many restorations will be undertaken and new construction works at major shrines will be taken up,” Dr Andrabi said in a statement.
She said that earlier Waqf used to get help from other departments and agencies for construction at the shrines. Waqf Board is committed to providing requisite facilities to all at the shrines and Waqf-controlled assets, she said. Dr Darakhshan thanked the people of J&K for their support to the Waqf Board.
