AAP led Delhi Waqf Board promises money, govt job to Jharkhand’s Tabrez’s wife while Delhi’s Ankit Saxena’s father awaits compensation

Delhi government makes up promises to Tabrez's family in Jharkhand even as Delhi's Ankit Saxena's family awaits compensation.

After failing to fulfil promises made to Ankit Saxena’s parents, the Delhi AAP government led by Arvind Kejriwal has now resorted to appeasement politics by promising employment to the wife of Tabrez Ansari, who was allegedly killed by a mob in Jharkhand.

Reportedly, a panel of Delhi Wakf Board which is Chaired by AAP MLA Amanatullah Khan on Thursday said it has decided to give Rs 5 lakh and a government job to the wife of 24-year-old Tabrez Ansari who was allegedly killed by a mob in Jharkhand. The Wakf Board chairman also said they will help Ansari’s wife get legal aid.

“We are trying to send a cheque of Rs 5 lakh to Tabrez’s wife. I may also go there to hand over the cheque to her. We will also give her a job at the Wakf board and provide her legal help,” said Amanatullah Khan

Shockingly, the decision of the Delhi Wakf Board comes at a time when the Delhi government is facing a backlash for its failure to provide compensation as promised to the parents of Ankit Saxena, a Delhi-based photographer who was brutally murdered in February last year by his Muslim girlfriend’s family who did not approve of the inter-religious love affair.

Recently, Yashpal Saxena, father of Ankit’s father had expressed his disappointment at Delhi government for not keeping up the promises. Yashpal Saxena had said that they have not received any of the promised compensation from Delhi government.

Adding how the Delhi CM has let him down, he had wondered if the rift between the two communities would have helped him get early compensation. Yashpal Saxena after getting deceived by Arvind Kejriwal government had said he was broken after AAP government defaulted on their promise of providing both legal and financial help.

Rebel AAP leader Kapil Mishra questioned Kejriwal’s intentions ahead of Delhi Assembly elections and accused him of Muslim appeasement.


Meanwhile, media reports came out about Delhi government’s insensitivity towards Ankit Saxena’s family, AAP had said that it will expedite the file for Ankit Saxena’s family’s compensation and financial assistance.
