 Statement released by A. Zakir Hussain at a press conference

The process of appointing a president for the Chitradurga District Committee of the Karnataka State Wax Board will begin very soon, and it is a known fact that many have tried for this post. I have been involved in the field of social service in Chitradurga for more than three decades. I have been working for a long time in organizations, especially in the field of wage laborers, organizations of various classes of workers, pro-people organizations, etc., and I have worked for the benefit of thousands of poor people, workers, and other classes of people.

I have been recognized in the social field in Chitradurga for more than three decades and am currently working as the founder president of the Chitradurga District Carpenter Employees Welfare Development Association. In order to provide housing and land to hundreds of poor families of this category, I have purchased land adjacent to the National Highway Davangere Road near Chitradurga. A settlement is being built there. This project is being implemented, which will provide shelter to hundreds of families.

I have maintained close association with almost all sections of people in Chitradurga district. I have worked with them across caste and religion and have done public service work, which has instilled immense confidence in me. I have previously been appointed as a director of the Azad Nagar Anjuman Mosque Management Board. I have worked for the welfare of the Muslim community as the working president of Karnataka Muslim Sangha and the state president of Muslim of India Organization. I am the vice president of INTEC (KPCC), IMBCFW, and the vice president of Chitradurga Building Construction Workers' Association. In addition, I am also recognized in various organizations.

For the past two decades, I have been providing financial and other assistance to the poor and needy of this community for the development of the Muslim community, providing solutions to various problems of the community. When the terrible virus called Corona hit the entire country, when people were struggling, I went door to door to create awareness among the Muslim community. I have also provided ration kits and other facilities to people of other communities. I have gone to the government along with the leaders of the community concerned and submitted a request to the minister regarding the issue of providing reservation to the Muslim community.

I have a good relationship with the Muslim community in the district, and all religious leaders from all sects and communities have expressed their appreciation for my social service work, the facilities provided to those who work for the people, and my pro-social activities. Religious leaders of the Muslim community, thinkers from other walks of life, and various abbots have expressed their appreciation.

Chitradurga District Vox Board Committee is an important organization, which is a social, public, service sector organization. All the mosques of Chitradurga district,

 If the dargah, other institutions, gurus, and community leaders trust and believe in me and help appoint me to this position, I will honestly do the work of repaying the debt of these people.

Till now, we have never sought any status for any mosque, dargah or other committee of our Muslim community in Chitradurga district. But now, for the betterment of the Muslim community, I have sought this post for the Chitradurga District Vox Board Committee due to the insistence, advice and cooperation of the community leaders. For that, for the past few days, senior leaders of the Muslim community of the entire district, heads of mosques and other pro-people organizations have held consultations, and a good response has been received.

If the government, society, gives me this position, I will do a job that will bring dignity to that organization. Along with the work of increasing the source of income for the Vaks Board Committee, I will sincerely try to correct the differences that are seen in the commercial stores running under the organization. Commercial stores will be built on the vacant sites of the organization. They will be distributed in a way that will facilitate the poor to live at the lowest possible price.

I will make it a point to visit all the mosques in the district every week, discuss with their leaders, and try to get more funding from the government to provide the necessary drinking water, sewage, electricity, and other basic facilities.

* In some places, it has been observed that most of the shops of the Waks Board Committee have been distributed to a single family. I will try to rectify this mess and distribute it fairly.

I humbly request that the elders of our society, Anjuman Masjid, Madrasa, intellectuals, and government representatives, who have good relations with all sections of people, including Dalits, backward classes, and minorities, place their trust in me and allow me to do so.

Location: Chitradurga,

A. Zakir Hussain

President.

District Carpenter Employees Association, Chitradurga.
