Chitradurga, KARNATAKA:

Bangalore:

Anwar Basha has emerged as the sole candidate for the Karnataka Waqf Board chairman’s position, which had been left vacant following Shafi Saadi’s resignation. The nomination papers, submitted by Anwar Basha, who hails from Chitradurga district, were the only ones received by election authorities.

The unexpected development has caught the attention of political circles and residents alike. Anwar Basha’s unopposed nomination suggests a level of consensus and support within the relevant political factions.

Shafi Saadi, the former chairman, had resigned from his post earlier this year. Since then, the position had remained vacant, leading to speculation about who would fill the void. Anwar Basha’s decision to step forward as the sole candidate has now resolved this uncertainty.

While the election authorities have yet to officially announce Anwar Basha’s selection, it is widely expected that he will assume the chairman’s role unopposed. The official announcement regarding his confirmation is scheduled to be made tomorrow, and it is anticipated that the transition will proceed smoothly.

Anwar Basha is known for his background in the Chitradurga district, where he has been actively involved in various community and political activities. His nomination and imminent appointment as chairman signal the potential for new leadership in Bangalore, and many are eager to see how he will address the challenges and opportunities facing the Waqf department.
