"Hussainabad Trust, which includes mosques and mausoleum... This so called religious leader has made them a centre of his politics," Azam alleged in a statement issued here.
The minister has been attacking Jawwad after the Shia Waqf board elections were postponed following the cleric's meeting with Samajwadi Party supremo Mulayam Singh Yadav on August 3.
