Summary
In the JPC meeting in November 2024, a delegation of Muslim women led by Shalini Ali supported the bill. He argued that this will bring transparency in the Waqf Board and will work for the welfare of weaker sections like women, orphans, widows. He said that the government has no possession on any religious place or any Muslim property.
This is just being misled.
As soon as this bill is passed, all Muslim religious places like Dargah and Mosque will be developed in a new form.
