Sahibzada Muhammad Adnan Daqri

Minister Auqaf, Hajj, Religious & Minority Affairs Department

Government of Khyber pakhtunkhwa

---

Alhamdulillah, it is indeed a great honor for me that I have been entrusted in the charge of Auqaf, Hajj, Religious & Minority Affairs Department. The primary and foremost duty of the Government is to provide social and economic relief to its citizenry in general and to the Minorities in particular. With this end in view the Department of Auqaf, Hajj, Religious & Minority Affairs was established way back in the year 2003.

The foremost responsibility of the Government is protection of the rights of all its citizens even handedly. This duty is upheld as sacrosanct not only by the law of the land but also by the religion of Islam. It is also in tandem with the aspiration of the incumbent Government as it strives to realize the concept of welfare state, based on the model of Riast-e-Madina where all-inclusiveness was its hall mark.

For this purpose Auqaf Department closely work with other sister Departments during policy formulation in matters of religion, establishment of peace and tranquility and general order in the society.

Auqaf, Department believes in public service and accountability and has established Complaint Cells which can be accessed through Internet, landlines and correspondence for receiving public complaints.

There is always room for improvement. Auqaf Department welcomes any suggestion for better public service delivery and good governance and will appreciate proposals from any quarter.
