- Telangana Waqf Board releases pending salaries to staff
- Waqf Board employees await remaining salary payments
Hyderabad: The Telangana Waqf Board has begun releasing long pending salaries to its staff following sustained concerns over payment delays. The move comes after repeated highlighting of the issue faced by Waqf Board employees, especially regarding unpaid salaries and honorariums. According to the information provided, the Board released the honorarium to Mouzzins and Imams on the previous day. Then, on Tuesday, it released the salaries of the Waqf Board Chairman and staff.
The release of payments marks partial relief for employees who had been facing financial stress due to delays. The issue of pending salaries had drawn attention over time, with employees seeking early resolution. Therefore, the latest development has been viewed as a positive step by those who received their dues. However, the matter is not fully resolved yet, as some categories of staff are still waiting for payments.
Meanwhile, the salaries and wages of the Chief Executive Officer and Daily Wage Employees remain pending. Employees expressed hope that these payments will also be cleared soon. The expectation is that the remaining dues will be released at the earliest to ensure that all staff members receive their rightful payments without further delay. The situation continues to be closely watched by those affected.
After the release of salaries to the Chairman and staff, the employees conveyed their appreciation to INDTODAY for regularly highlighting their problems. They acknowledged the role played in bringing attention to the issue of pending salaries. At the same time, they also thanked Chief Minister Revanth Reddy and Minister for Minorities Welfare Mohd. Azharuddin. They requested the authorities to take early steps to release the remaining pending salaries and wages of other staff members.
The issue of delayed salaries has been a major concern for Waqf Board employees. Therefore, the recent action by the Telangana Waqf Board has provided some relief. However, employees stressed that complete resolution will come only after the remaining staff, including the CEO and Daily Wage Employees, receive their pending payments. Until then, the matter remains partly unresolved, even as hopes remain high for a swift conclusion. (Maxim News)
