AP Waqf Board Plans Free International School
The Andhra Pradesh Waqf Board is building a free international school on 13.3 acres of Waqf land in Nellore.
The school will be on 5 acres, and the rest will be used for a mosque and shops.
The money from the shops will help take care of the school and support the Muslim community.
This is a test project, and if it works well, they will do similar things in other places.
Important people like the Waqf Board chairman and local leaders are helping with this plan.
They will start building soon.
