Negligence by Masajid committee delays salaries of Imams

Thursday, 28 March 2024 | Staff Reporter | BHOPAl

The negligence of Masjid Committee caused delay in salaries of Imams-Muezzin and now Jamiat Ulama demands from Minority Ministry to pay one year's salary.

Due to the negligence of the Masjid Committee, the salaries of the Imam Muezzins have not been received due to which the Imams of many mosques of the city are facing many types of family problems.

 On the other hand, in this matter, now Jamiat Ulama Madhya Pradesh has demanded from the Ministry of Minority Welfare to release one year's salary together, saying that this will ensure that the grand given under the merger agreement of the Masjid Committee is received on time. This time the issue of salary of Imam Muezzins needs to be raised at the central level.

In this matter, Secretary in-charge of Masjid Committee Uwais Ali said that the salary will be received. It is late due to some reasons. We have put the bills in the treasury on 26th, it can be expected that their salaries will come by 27th.

About a week ago also the committee officials had said that the salary would come in the next two days. However, this salary has not come yet.

According to the Masjid Committee officials, this time the salary of Imam Muezzins will be for two months, in this they will be given the salary for January and February, while the salary for March will be given to them in April. It is noteworthy that the salary of Imam Muezzins present in the mosques of the city is four to five thousand rupees per month. It has not been given to them for almost three months.

According to Masjid Committee officials, this has happened due to the grant received from the government. It happens every year that Imams face difficulty in receiving their salaries in February-March  or the salary gets stopped for two to three months till the last installment of grant comes.

The grant is given to the Masjid Committee in four installments in a year. According to the information, such a situation occurs every year between February and April.

Jamiat Ulama Madhya Pradesh Press Secretary Haji Mohammad Imran said that the Jamiat team will again knock on the doors of the Central Government. Imam Mozino is paid a salary under the merger agreement. Which is given by the government in the form of grant money to the Masjid Committee. Grand is not released on time and this time also the situation is the same, Imam Muezzin Hazrat has not received monthly salary since March till now.

Even after ten days of Ramzan, three Maha's salary is pending. We demand from the Ministry of Minority Welfare that one year's salary should be released together. This time the issue of salary of Imam Muezzins needs to be raised at the central level. We will write a letter to the concerned regarding this.

There are about 274 mosques under the Masjid Committee.This includes 143 mosques in Bhopal, 55 in Raisen, 55 in Sehore and 21 in Berasia. It includes 183 Imams and 115 Muezzins and Pesh Imams.They get their salary from grants and their own funds.
