Centre's Waqf Amendment Bill crafted to 'usurp' properties: AIMPLB

Описание: The All India Muslim Personal Law Board (AIMPLB) has said that the Centre's Waqf (Amendment) Bill, 2024 has been crafted to "usurp" Waqf properties across the country.

"Boards' convention felt that Waqf Amendment Bill 2024 was cannily crafted to usurp the waqf properties spread throughout the country. All the proposed 44 amendments and their sub-sections were designed to "destroy and manipulate" the status of the Waqf properties," AIMPLB spokesperson told PTI.

AIMPLB spokesperson S Q R Ilyas on Monday also accused the Joint Parliamentary Committee (JPC) on Waqf of not doing its job honestly.

He claimed that the JPC, which was formed to elicit suggestions of stakeholders, is giving time and attention to those with 'no locus standi on the issue and is behaving in a partisan way and violating rules and norms'.

Citing previous occasions, he alleged that this was the first time that the bill was brought without consultation with any Muslim organisations.
