Congress will also raise the issue of Vinesh Phogat in Lok Sabha even today. Party leaders have given notice in Lok Sabha.

There was a lot of uproar in Parliament yesterday on the issue of Vinesh.

The Waqf Amendment Act Bill was sent to JPC in the Lok Sabha

After speaking for about an hour, Kiren Rijiju proposed to send this bill to the JPC. He said that his government proposed to send this bill to the JPC. After this, Speaker Om Birla said that he would work to form a committee in this matter.

Rijiju told how many cases are pending inside the Waqf Board

Kiren Rijiju said that 12792 cases are pending inside the Waqf Board today. There are a total of 19207 cases pending in the tribunal. Why can’t we end it? Timeline is very important, justice should be given but justice should be given on time. Now we have set the timeline. The appeal should be disposed of within 90 days, within 6 months. If you don’t want to listen then why did you ask so many questions. You want to run away after asking questions, we will not let this happen.

Rijiju replied to Akhilesh’s question about DM

Kiren Rijiju said that everyone knows what the Waqf property can be used for. Do not link this bill with religion. Look at it from the point of view of justice. Attacking the Congress, Rijiju said that do not try to run away by making allegations. The changes made in 2013 are more dangerous. Only Muslims can create Waqf, non-Muslims cannot. We are going back to the old system. They raised a lot of objections about the DM. The collector’s job is only for revenue.

Opposition MPs came personally and said, the party is opposing but we are supporting – Rijiju

Kiren Rijiju said that this is a good time, whatever mistake has been made, it is okay, humans make mistakes, Congress did it. Today is the time to improve. While improving, at least do not oppose. Many leaders have come to me personally and said that all the Wakf Boards in the country have been taken over by mafia people. Many MPs said that the party is opposing but from within I am supporting.

No law is above the Constitution

Kiren Rijiju said that in our country no law can be above the Constitution. There is such a provision in this 1995 Wakf Act which is above all. It is the responsibility of the House, no matter who the poor woman is, it is the responsibility of the House that if there is any deficiency in getting justice, then it should be fulfilled. The amendment bill that we have brought has all the provisions. • 02:29 PM,Aug 08 2024

Rijiju said- Opposition should applaud us

Kiren Rijiju said that this is the recommendation of the Joint Parliamentary Committee. Today you should applaud us. They are opposing under political pressure, everyone is giving suggestions from within. The amount of advice that has been given on this bill in the last 10 years, no other government has ever done so much. Those who want to mislead the purpose of the bill by citing the Constitution.

Waqf Board has more than 8 lakh properties

Sachar Committee report is there. As the Minister of Minority Affairs, we have studied that a total of 8 lakh 72 thousand, 320 Waqf properties cannot be added to our portal. Its value is likely to be many times more. Everyone knows how much property the Waqf Board has and how much it earns.

Support the Waqf Bill – Rijiju

Support this bill, you will get the blessings of crores of people. A few people have captured the Waqf Board. This bill will be recorded in history. Who has supported and opposed this bill, its name will be recorded in history.

Waqf Amendment Bill is not taking away anyone’s rights – Rijiju

Leave aside the talk of taking away anyone’s rights in this bill, it has been brought for those who have not got the rights. This bill has been brought to give place to those who are backward in the Muslim society. The Constitution has not been violated in the bill. This bill was first brought in 1954. After that many amendments were made. This is the Waqf Act 1995 Amendment Bill. It was changed by bringing amendments in 2013.

Shiv Sena MP surrounded the opposition

Shiv Sena MP Shrikant Eknath Shinde said that politics is being done by linking caste and religion to this bill. Pointing towards the opposition, he said – Your attitude is shameful. They talk about secularism, they have to be reminded that when their government was in Maharashtra, they had appointed administrators in temples, then they did not care about secularism. When the court gave justice to Shah Bano in 1986, these people had done the work of snatching the rights of Muslim women from this Parliament. The game of occupying land is being played through the Waqf Board. Hundreds of cases are in the courts regarding the Waqf Board.

What did the National Conference say on the Waqf Board Amendment Bill?

National Conference Mian Altaf Ahmed said that secular people are feeling threatened by the bill that is being brought here. India is known for democracy and secularism, do not hurt it.

TMC MP’s argument – Property is a matter of civil court

TMC MP Kalyan Banerjee said that property matters come only under the purview of civil court. How can the central government take away the rights of civil court by bringing a bill?

There is deep politics behind the bill brought to amend the Waqf Board. BJP is desperate, disappointed, so it is bringing this bill to appease a few staunch supporters.

Lallan Singh supported the Waqf Bill

Union Minister Rajiv Ranjan supported the Waqf Bill. He said, ‘I listened to many honorable members. JDU is a party. We have to say our point. Listening to many members, it seems that the amendment brought is anti-Muslim, how is it anti-Muslim, the example of Ayodhya temple is being given here, the difference between a temple and an institution is not known.’

We believe in the culture and religion of India. We are Hindus. But at the same time we also believe in other religions. This is the basic principle. You have brought this bill only for the Maharashtra, Haryana elections. Last time the people of the country taught you a lesson. This is an attack on the federal system. Waqf property is run through different institutions. K Venugopal, Congress MP

Congress leader K Venugopal targeted the government over the Waqf Bill

Congress leader K Venugopal said, ‘This bill is against the Constitution. Where does the Waqf Council get property from, which believes in Allah. I want to ask the government whether anyone can think whether any non-Hindu can join Ayodhya. Can any non-Hindu join the Devasthan Board. This bill is a direct attack on religious freedom. This is an attack on fundamental rights.’
