Imran Pratapgarhi targeted PM Modi
Imran Pratapgarhi wrote, “My Dear Friend Donald Trump was imposing 26% tariffs on India last night. So our Prime Minister was running Parliament till 2 o’clock in the night. The government had to resort to the names of Muslims again to divert attention from the necessary issues.”
The bill was opposed in a unique way
Earlier, Imran Pratapgarhi opposed this bill in a unique way. He was seen performing black clothes at the gate of Parliament and performing a banner in his hand. It was written on his banner – “Reject Waqf Bill”. During the protest, he also tied a black band on his head, which made his opposition even more clear. Explain that despite heavy opposition from the opposition, the government passed this bill in the Lok Sabha. Now it has to be seen what response is seen in Rajya Sabha.
Opposition raised many questions
The opposition raised many objections about this bill. The opposition said that this Waqf will intervene in the autonomy of the boards and the government will encroach in religious matters of Muslims. AIMIM’s Asaduddin Owaisi opposed the bill and after speaking, finally tore the bill.
Congress MP Gaurav Gogoi also targeted the government
Congress MP Gaurav Gogoi said that this is a bill invading the basic spirit of the Constitution. He said, “Today, the government is eyeing the land of a particular society, tomorrow they will look at the land of other minorities of the society. Amendment is needed. I do not say that there should be amendment. Amendment should be such that the bill should be strengthened. Their amendments will increase problems and disputes. They want that cases will run in every corner of the country.
He further said, “They want to break the atmosphere of brotherhood in the country. The boards can make some rules with the permission of the state government. They want to remove it completely. The state government is trying to end the power. The state government has the power to make the rules. The state government can make rules in favor of the survey commissioner. You all want to remove and say that these are amendments.”
