India's Parliament Passes Controversial Waqf Property Bill
India's parliament has passed the Waqf (Amendment) Bill, which aims to reform the management of Muslim land endowments, a move the government argues will enhance transparency and reduce corruption. The bill allows for the inclusion of non-Muslims in the management boards of Waqf properties and increases government oversight, prompting criticism from opposition parties and Muslim groups who view it as an attack on minority rights. Prime Minister Modi's administration claims the bill will combat mismanagement and aid the development of minorities, but detractors, including Congress Party leader Rahul Gandhi, argue it marginalizes Muslims and infringes upon their property rights. The bill was passed in the lower house with 288 votes in favor and is expected to face further debate in the upper house. Critics warn that this legislative change could serve as a precedent for further targeting of minority communities. The bill was originally tabled last year and has undergone significant revisions amid opposition outcry.
