Cold wave grips Delhi, fog affects visibility slows traffic

Published

on

 Delhiites woke up to a chilly morning on Tuesday and dense fog lowered visibility in some areas of the city, affecting road and rail traffic.

“A minimum temperature of 7 degree Celsius was recorded in Delhi,” said the Meteorological (MeT) office.

The MeT office said that a layer of dense fog and moderate icy cold winds from the North were responsible for this steep fall in temperature.

“Northwesterly dry and cold winds will continue over Northwest India. However, intensity of fog may decrease leading to marginal increase in day temperatures and abatement of cold wave from parts of West Uttar Pradesh, Delhi and Haryana. Minimum temperature may also increase marginally,” said the MeT office.

“Light snowfall is going on over the upper reaches of Western Himalayas. Another Western disturbance is expected around December 30 and 31st. Moderate snowfall is possible during that time. Temperatures may dip once again on New Year eve,” he said.

The authorities at national capital’s Indira Gandhi International airport in the early hours of Tuesday also issued an advisory and said they requested people to get in touch with their service providers for updated information on flight schedule.

“While landings and take-offs continue, flights not equipped for low visibility operations may get affected. Passengers are requested to contact the airline concerned for updated flight information,” said the airport authorities in a tweet.

“Cold Day/Severe Cold Day Conditions very likely in some parts over Punjab, Haryana, Chandigarh, Delhi and West Rajasthan and cold day conditions in isolated pockets over Uttarakhand on 26th and 27th December 2022,” the India Meteorological Department (IMD) had said.

“Due to prevailing light wind and high moisture in lower tropospheric levels, Dense to Very Dense Fog very likely to continue over some parts of Uttarakhand, Punjab, Haryana, Chandigarh & Delhi and West Rajasthan during the next 48 hours,” the IMD had said on Monday evening.

Muslims have not benefited from the ownership of waqf, try to inform Muslims about the Shariah status of waqf property: Mufti Manzoor Ziai

Published

Mumbai: After the implementation of the Waqf law, Mufti Manzoor Zia’s book Waqf Sharia, Politics and Reforms in the Indian Context was launched at the Mumbai Press Club, in which Mufti Manzoor Zia openly admitted about the book and said that this book focuses on the Sharia status of Waqf and other issues in the context of Waqf law. This book has a very detailed discussion about Waqf in the context of Islamic teachings. Mufti Manzoor said that there has been a long series of protests against the Waqf law, but till now there has been large-scale division and misuse of Waqf properties.

Protesting against this act is a democratic right, but it cannot be done regardless of what has happened to the ownership of Waqf so far and who is occupying its property. Eliminating encroachment from the ownership of Waqf is also the need of the hour. This Waqf is done in the way of God, but the common Muslims have not benefited from the ownership of this Waqf. Big protests and processions are being held, but why no hospitals, educational institutions and medical institutions have been built on the endowment property? He said that even the talented people of the nation are not able to get educational scholarships. The condition of the Imams is pathetic.

The 12-year-old child of an Imam is struggling between life and death in a government hospital. That Imam cannot provide him medical aid because he has no resources. He said that the works that have been brought to light in the context of the Endowment Act are an attempt to highlight the status of the endowment as much as possible. When Mufti Manzoor Zia was asked what was the purpose of bringing this work to light only after the implementation of the Endowment Act, he said that the process of preparing the work related to the ownership of the endowment and its Sharia requirements was already underway.

It is a coincidence that it was released after the Endowment Act. He said that the Waqf property is reserved for Muslims but it is useless because petty thefts to corruption are common in it. He was asked whether the implementation of the Waqf Act will benefit Muslims now. He said that the matter related to the Waqf Act is under hearing in the Supreme Court, so it is too early to say anything on this right now. Congress leader Nizamuddin Rain, Anjuman Bashingan Bihar Mahmoodul Hasan Hakimi, scholars, elders of the city and dignitaries attended the function.

Thereafter, the funeral procession was taken out at 8:30 am and the Janaza Namaz was offered at the cemetery and mourners bid a tearful goodbye to Saqib Nachan. Before cremating Saqib Nachan at the Gram Panchayat cemetery, a high alert was issued at the police station and Bhiwandi. Also, there was a possibility of protests by the Vishwa Hindu Parishad and Hindu organizations, so the police had made tight security arrangements during the funeral procession.
