Waqf amendment bill: The atmosphere is hot from road to Parliament regarding the Waqf Amendment Bill. On the one hand, while the ruling party is saying that through this, the property of Waqf will be managed in a systematic manner, the opposition and Muslims say that it will harm them and it is not in favor of Muslims. On the previous day, when this bill passed in the Lok Sabha, 288 votes were cast in its favor and 232 votes in opposition. There are many reasons behind the amendment of the Waqf, but there is a strong war in the politics of India.
Opposition accused the government
Opposition political parties are making all kinds of allegations against this bill on the Modi government. He says that this law is being brought to take away the rights of Waqf Board and Muslims. Amidst the ongoing debate, everyone has come to know what the Waqf is and once a property is given to Waqf, then the ownership of it is removed from it. Even a challenge cannot be done in the court regarding the land of Waqf.
Waqf’s property is not challenged in court
Actually, the government says that in the 1995 Act, there are mistakes regarding the regulation of Waqf’s properties. There is also a dispute about ownership and many cases of illegal occupation of Waqf land are included. This is the reason why the central government is bringing a new law. The Waqf Tribunal Board hear all the cases regarding Waqf’s properties and its decision cannot be challenged in the court. Like Waqf’s property, there is something else which cannot be challenged in the court.
What cannot be challenged in court
Like Waqf’s land, the instructions of the state policy cannot be challenged in the court. The direction of state policies is not applied and debated in the court of theory law, as they have moral duties of the state that a state should follow for the benefit of its citizens. Therefore, they cannot be challenged in court.
