Waqf Amendment Bill 2024 On being introduced in the Lok Sabha today, BJP MP Sanjay Jaiswal said, ‘This is a very good bill which is in the interest of the country and Muslims. This is a bill that will help poor Muslims, women will participate. Today 60 years have passed since the Waqf law has passed, but till date no poor have got any benefit from Waqf. It is a matter of regret that when this law is being completely transparent in this country, whose shopkeeping is being closed, those who are sitting on the assets of Waqf Board themselves are working to confuse the rest … ‘
On the opposition’s opposition, he said, ‘If this bill is unconstitutional then the opposition can demand to end this bill. We will not have any objection in it. The basic issue is that a property will be investigated whether it is being used correctly or not.
