The Morning Standard
|April 05, 2025
FOLLOWING the assent to the Waqf (Amendment) Bill 2025 in both Houses of Parliament, Jamia Millia Islamia students and activists, on Friday, marked their dissent to the legislation in a demonstration organised at the university entrance.
Meanwhile, Delhi Police along with paramilitary forces conducted flag marches in sensitive areas across the city, including Jamia Nagar and the Jamia Millia Islamia, to ensure that law and order is not disturbed in the wake of the passage of the contentious bill.
The demonstration at Jamia witnessed students delivering fiery speeches against the legislation, accusing the government of targeting the minority community and its properties. In an act of defiance, they burned copies of the bill.
