India's waqf amendment bill, now allowing non-Muslims in the management of waqf properties, has sparked intense debate. Prime Minister Modi described it as a significant step towards reform and transparency, aiming to combat corruption and mismanagement. However, the opposition, especially the Congress party, strongly condemns it, warning that it jeopardizes the rights of Muslims and may lead to the confiscation of historical mosques. With plans to challenge the bill's constitutionality in the Supreme Court, the opposition views this as part of a broader strategy to polarize society.
The amendments would add non-Muslims to the boards managing waqf properties, a move that India’s opposition party argues undermines the rights of Muslims and could lead to property confiscation.
The waqf amendment bill has been described as a milestone for reform and transparency by Prime Minister Modi, but it has faced intense criticism for its potential impact on religious minorities.
