THE HON'BLE SRI JUSTICE ASHUTOSH MOHUNTA WRIT PETITION No.31676 of 2010 ORDER: The petitioner has prayed that he be appointed to the post of Mutawalli of Jamiya Mosque, Srirampuram, Narasaraopet, Guntur District, as per the provisions of the Wakf Act, 1995 (for short ‘the Act’). For the said purpose, the petitioner has submitted a representation to the second respondent - Chief Executive Officer, Andhra Pradesh Wakf Board, Hyderabad, on 22.11.2010, but no action has been taken on the same so far. The claim of the petitioner is that the aforementioned mosque was built up by his forefathers in 1920 and that under Section 63 of the Act the descendants of the Wakif i.e., the person who endowed the mosque, are entitled to be appointed as Mutawalli. Learned counsel for the petitioner submits that the petitioner is the descendant of the Wakif, and therefore, he is entitled to be appointed as Mutawalli. After hearing the learned counsel for the petitioner, this writ petition is disposed of with a direction to the second respondent to decide the representation of the petitioner dated 22.11.2010 expeditiously, preferably within a period of three months from the date of receipt of a certified copy of this order. There shall be no order as to costs. ASHUTOSH MOHUNTA, J Date: 25.01.2011 va
