The basic objective of the Waqf (Amendment) Act 2025 is to increase the efficiency of the Waqf Board by removing the flaws of the previous law. This law is designed to solve problems and challenges faced in regulation and management of ‘Waqf properties’. This law will not violate anyone’s rights. Union Minority Affairs and Parliamentary Affairs Minister Kiren Rijiju on Tuesday assured that all poor and needy Muslims will get justice. He was speaking at a press conference held in Mumbai. Eat this time. BJP state general secretary Medha Kulkarni, state chief spokesperson Keshav Upadhyay, BJP Minority Front state president Idris Multani and others were present on the occasion. He also clarified that Waqf properties declared through registered Waqf properties or notification will not be touched.
I would like to remind those people who criticize the inclusion of non-Muslim members in the Waqf Board that Azam Khan was a Muslim chairman of the Kumbh Mela Management Committee in Prayagraj. But we never thought, “Mr. Rijiju said. With Waqf (Amendment) Act 2025, now the Waqf Board will not be able to declare any property arbitrarily as a waqf. Obviously, this law will stop the practices like declaring the entire villages as ‘Waqf’. Many poor Muslim brothers and groups have supported this law. Communities like Pasampada, Bohra and Ahmedia have supported this law. Minister has thanked Modi. The main demands of this community have been included in this law.
Section 40 of the Waqf Act was being widely misused to declare private properties as ‘Waqf Property’. Now Section 40 of the Waqf Act is being canceled to ensure a fair and transparent administration of Waqf property. Rijiju clarified. Rijiju said that according to the rules, now the Mutwalis will have to register their property information on the central portal within six months. This portal will automate the management of ‘Waqf assets’ including registration, audit, litigation, which will bring transparency in the system. Any type of dispute will be resolved by the District Collector, which will report to the state.
