West Delhi BJP MP Parvesh Varma said he personally conducted surveys of graveyards and land of Delhi urban shelter development board (DUSIB), gram sabha land, Delhi development authority (DDA), Municipal Corporation of Delhi (MCD) and even the land under flood department of the Delhi government.
In a fresh letter to Delhi Lieutenant Governor Anil Baijal, BJP MP West Delhi Parvesh Varma has submitted a list of mosques which have been built illegally in his constituency.
In his letter, the BJP MP cited 54 instances of illegal mosques in West Delhi.
Parvesh Varma further stated that such land was meant for community centres, parks, dhalao ghars (concrete structures meant for the collection of garbage) and community toilets.
MP Parvesh Varma submitted a comprehensive list of his own survey naming areas such as Narela, Sultanpuri, Bawana, Mangolpuri and even areas that fall in South Delhi constituency of RK Puram and Rohini in the North Delhi zone.
Parvesh Varma further requested the Delhi LG to constitute a committee of district magistrates and heads of all the above mentioned departments to submit a status report by conducting their own survey in all constituencies of Delhi. He has requested the report be submitted in two months.
Earlier in June, the Delhi minority commission had taken cognisance of the BJP MP’s letter and formed its own five-member fact finding team to survey the claims made by him.
The committee members alleged that Parvesh Varma was not willing to meet them. “Since he got a list and raised the concern, he should share the narrative with us. The committee has also written to the MP. It has been 10 days. Even Manoj Tiwari did not responded to our communications,” Ovais Sultan, chairman of the fact finding committee under the Delhi minority commission, said.
Delhi BJP chief Manoj Tiwari’s office has said that they have not received any letter of correspondence in this regard.(India Today)

Hardly surprising as that community thrives on building religous centres whether madrassa or mosque in populated areas. Tak efor example here in the UK the modus operandi -bizzare considering in areas stastiscally poor taking over A1 use vacant unit in shopping parade and odd house suddenly becoming a palce of prayer in the middle of a residential street all thanks to their vote grabber Labour party administration. So in India this will be done to a new level of corrupton and bribing local officials. For all such violation of laws the authorities should follow the money. Who is paying for such rampant disregard of laws
