Waqf Board's permission will not be required to sell land in Tiruchendurai
Following allegations that Tamil Nadu's Tiruchendurai village took permission from the Waqf Board to sell land, a peace meeting of the affected parties was held in Srirangam , where it was decided that no permission was required from the Waqf Board to sell the land. A major controversy erupted in the Tiruchendurai area when the Joint Sub-Registrar of Tiruchi asked Rajagopal, a person, to bring a No Objection Certificate (NOC) by the Waqf Board. Rajagopal owns one acre of agricultural land in Tiruchendurai village. The Waqf Board had sent a letter to the sub-registrar in Tiruchi stating that the entire plot of 480 acres in Tiruchendurai village belonged to him. The Waqf Board also said that those who want to sell land in the village will have to obtain a NOC certificate from the Waqf Board. The local people created a ruckus in protest against this and they said that if this is the case then the Chandrasekhar Swamy temple in Tiruchendurai will also belong to the Waqf B
