TN Assembly Urges Centre to Withdraw Waqf Bill
The Morning Standard
|March 28, 2025
All parties except BJP support resolution passed in the House
-
THE Tamil Nadu Assembly on Thursday unanimously adopted a resolution urging the union government to withdraw the Waqf (Amendment) Bill, 2024, arguing that it would severely affect the minority Muslim community. All political parties, including the AIADMK, supported the resolution, whereas BJP MLA Vanathi Srinivasan opposed it and led her party MLAs to a walkout ahead of the resolution being put to vote.
"People practising all faiths live in harmony in India, and the Constitution gives the rights to people to practise their religions. Popular governments have to preserve this right. Contrary to this, the centre introduced the Waqf (Amendment) Bill, 2024, in August last year to amend the 1995 Waqf Act, which would severely affect the Muslim community. As such, this House urges the union government to withdraw this Bill in toto," the resolution moved by Chief Minister MK Stalin said.
