JAMMU: On the gracious invitation of the Jammu & Kashmir Waqf Board, senior BJP leader Rajeev Charak had the privilege of participating in the Annual Urs Mubarak of Hazrat Peer Baba Budhan Ali Shah (RA), held at the revered shrine in Satwari, Jammu. Mr. Charak visited the holy dargah and received blessings during this spiritually enriching occasion.
Charak expressed deep gratitude to Dr. Darakhshan Andrabi, Honâble Chairperson of the J&K Waqf Board, for the warmth, hospitality, and respect extended to him during the event. The Urs witnessed a large number of devotees coming together to pay homage to the revered saint, creating an atmosphere of devotion, unity, and spiritual upliftment.
While addressing the gathering, Mr. Charak drew the attention of Dr. Andrabi to several key issues related to religious infrastructure. He urged the Waqf Board to initiate development work at the Shahi Masjid and the adjoining graveyard at Bahu Fort, Jammu. Additionally, he brought up the concern regarding a mosque in New Colony, Bahu Fort, which was earlier registered with the Waqf Board. The monthly honorarium of the mosque's Imam has reportedly been discontinued, and he requested that it be reinstated promptly.
Responding with concern and commitment, Dr. Darakhshan Andrabi immediately directed the Administrator of the Jammu Waqf Board and all relevant officials to visit the sites, assess the current status, and ensure the development work begins without delay.
On this sacred occasion, Mr. Rajeev Charak extended heartfelt greetings and best wishes to all devotees, praying that the divine blessings of Baba Budhan Ali Shah (RA) continue to inspire peace, spiritual strength, and brotherhood across all communities.
