Land Encroachment by Waqf in Munambam; Muslim Organizations Demand Concessions, Offer to Withdraw Eviction if Given 400 Acres of Land

Kochi: Muslim organizations have begun negotiations with the government to halt the fishermen’s protest against the Waqf Board’s land encroachment in Munambam. They have offered to withdraw from evicting Munambam residents if the government provides 400 acres of land. Without involving the Waqf Board directly, Farook Trust has initiated these discussions. Informal talks with the State Waqf Minister Abdurahiman and prominent Muslim community leaders have led to a preliminary understanding. The final decision on the land allocation will rest with the Chief Minister.

Leaders from the Muslim community, including prominent political figures like former Minister P.K. Kunhalikutty, are working on this land compensation proposal. Alongside representatives from Farook College, they plan to engage in discussions with the Chief Minister. The dual stance of both ruling and opposition parties on the issue is being questioned through this development, as they claim to protect Munambam residents but also seek a compromise. During discussions, it will be argued that the 110 acres allocated for Farook College currently house Munambam residents, and that 400 acres of land were lost due to natural disasters. Hence, there is a demand for the government to provide 400 acres of its own land in Kasaragod District for the college’s establishment, along with a proposed deemed university. The demand for 400 acres is based on the valuation of the current land in Munambam.

For two years, Munambam residents have fought for their land by frequently visiting government offices, yet justice has been elusive. Despite approaching ministers, opposition leaders, and MPs, the issue was largely ignored. Consequently, the residents launched an indefinite protest in front of the Velankanni Matha Church, visited by bishops and, later, Union Minister Suresh Gopi. This has prompted both ruling and opposition parties to unite on the land compensation proposal.

Opposition leader V.D. Satheesan, CPM State Secretary M.V. Govindan, and Panakkad Muhammadali Shihab Thangal recently stated that they seek a swift resolution to the problem. Their response followed informal discussions on the issue.

The government has stated it will not evict Munambam residents, and if this assurance is given, the protest may be withdrawn. However, Munambam residents remain skeptical. The case regarding land rights was filed by members of the Muslim community unaffiliated with the Waqf Board. They have been asked to withdraw the case or else await a court verdict.
