A meeting of the joint committee of Parliament on the Waqf (Amendment) Bill on Friday sparked intense debate, with opposition members vociferously opposing certain provisions of the draft legislation, leading to a brief walkout.
Chaired by BJP member Jagadambika Pal, the panel discussed views from various groups, including the All India Sunni Jamiyatul Ulama and the Uttar Pradesh Sunni Waqf Board. The controversy centered on the 'declaration of Waqf by user' and the role of district collectors in property classification.
Heated exchanges erupted between BJP and opposition members, aggravated by the presence of a lawyer representing multiple groups. The bill's next discussions are set for early September, with public input sought within 15 days due to the bill's wide-reaching implications.
