Political pressure obstructs protection of Masjid Nana Bagh land

Political pressure is being mounted on Waqf Board to stop efforts to protect Masjid Nana Bagh land. Some key leaders belonging to ruling party are trying to disrupt Waqf Board’s efforts to stop illegal construction and restore the land.
