Waqf Board Directs Officials to Resume Land in the State
The Waqf Board is like a special group that manages land for Muslims.
The leader told officials to get back land that was taken from them.
The government has already gotten back some land from people who took it illegally.
They want to get back a lot more land in the next couple of months.
If the people who took the land don't give it back, they could get in trouble with the law.
The Waqf Board also plans to set up places where Muslim people can learn new skills.
Waqf Board Chairman directs officials to reclaim Waqf lands.

The goal is to recover at least 50% of lands in two months.
Criminal cases will be filed against land grabbers who fail to return land.
Skill development centers for Muslim minorities are planned.
