Mangaluru, Apr 3: Anwar Manippady, former chairman of Karnataka State Minority Commission, has hit out at Siddaramaiah-led previous Congress government and H D Kumaraswamy-led incumbent Congress-Janata Dal(S) coalition government in the for dragging their feet on implementing his report on encroachment of Wakf property.

Addressing a press meet here on Tuesday at the BJP election office, Mr. Manippady, who is the joint spokesperson of the State BJP unit, said that both the governments have acted against the interests of Muslims.

He said that it was the BJP government that enacted laws in May 2013 to recover Wakf property after he submitted his report and thereby tried to help the Muslims. The Congress government failed to place his report before both the Houses of the State Legislature after which S.K. Kantha filed a contempt petition in the High Court of Karnataka.

Mr. Manippady said that the State government filed a review petition before the High Court and it was dismissed.

The government then filed a Special Leave Petition before the Supreme Court which dismissed it on March 15, 2019.

Mr. Manippady said that the State government has no other option now but to place his report before the two Houses of the Legislature.

On the lack of representation for Muslims in the Lok Sabha polls from the BJP, Mr. Manippady said that Muslim members of the BJP are not yet ready to face elections.
