New Delhi (Political Correspondent): Addressing to the Indian parliament, Union Home Minister Amit Shah on Wednesday said that There is no provision to include non-Muslims in the Wakf (Amendment) Bill, 2025, this is just politics to spread fear among minorities.
Amit Shah also said that If there had not been an amendment in the Wakf Act in 2013, there would have been no need to bring this bill. Elections were due in 2014 and in 2013, the Wakf law was made extreme overnight for the purpose of appeasement. As a result, 123 properties in Delhi’s Lutyens zone were handed over to the Wakf just 25 days before the elections.
Earlier in the day, Union Minority Affairs Minister Kiren Rijiju presented the Bill in Parliament, stating that the Joint Parliamentary Committee’s (JPC) consultation process was the most extensive exercise ever undertaken by a parliamentary panel in India’s democratic history.
