LEH: In a heartfelt display of gratitude rooted in faith and community harmony, residents of Youljuk village have publicly thanked Agha Syed Abbas Rizvi, former Executive Councilor of Taisuru, for his pivotal role in resolving a 70-year-old land dispute over the ‘Chooq’ pasture between Youljuk and neighboring Khaous village.
The dispute, which had long fueled tension between the two villages, was finally laid to rest following direct intervention by Rizvi, who took the matter to the high authorities of the Ladakh Autonomous Hill Development Council (LAHDC). Acting on a formal request from the Youljuk village committee, Rizvi personally accompanied senior officials to the disputed site, facilitating an on-ground assessment that led to a fair and lasting resolution.
The village committee, which had been persistently approaching higher authorities for months, expressed profound relief at the outcome. In a public statement, they said:“With the help of Allah Almighty, this issue — pending for seven decades — has been resolved. Insha’Allah, the age-old enmity between the believers of Youljuk and Khaous comes to an end today. From now on, there will be no more complaints between our villages.”
Citing a noble Hadith — “Whoever does not thank people has not thanked Allah” — the residents emphasized that expressing gratitude to those who serve the community is an act of worship. The committee extended special appreciation to Honorable Councilor Taisuru, Abdul Hadi, who also visited the site and extended full cooperation in the resolution process. The members of the Youljuk Village Committee concluded their message with a prayer: “We pray to Allah Almighty that Agha Syed Abbas Rizvi continues to succeed in resolving such issues for the people in the future. Ameen.”
The resolution marks a significant step toward lasting peace and brotherhood in the region, reinforcing trust in local governance and the power of dialogue in healing historical divides.Local leaders have hailed the development as a model of conflict resolution in Ladakh’s remote high-altitude communities, where pasture rights often form the basis of intergenerational disputes.
