Kerala reconstitutes the Keralam Waqf Board and appoints IUML leader M.C. Mayin Haji as its chairman, according to multiple reports. The move replaces the existing board’s leadership and members.
The outlets agree that the reconstituted board takes over from a previous set of members led by K.S. Hamza. One report specifies that all members of the board headed by K.S. Hamza are replaced, and that nine members are appointed to the newly constituted board. The reports frame the change as part of the state’s governance actions under the current UDF government, with appointments made to form the reconstituted Waqf Board.
