Saturday, 05 April 2025 | PNS | CHANDIGARH



Haryana Chief Minister Nayab Singh Saini on Friday hailed the Waqf (Amendment) Bill as an important step towards good governance that will help in the welfare of oppressed and backward Muslims. Saini said the Bill which received the Parliament's nod on Friday was yet another evidence of 'Modi Ki Guarantee and the prime minister's commitment to the ideals of 'Sabka Saath, Sabka Vikas'.

"I congratulate all countrymen on the passing of the Waqf (Amendment) Bill, 2025 and the Mussalman Wakf (Repeal) Bill in both the Houses," he said in a Hindi post on X.

Commenting on the Wakf Amendment Bill, former Chief Minister Bhupinder Singh Hooda told Reporters that it was brought in haste and discussions should have been held with all the parties and stakeholders first.

Haryana’s Energy, Transport and Labour Minister Anil Vij said that the Waqf Board Amendment Bill 2025 was drafted liberally by the government. It has been passed after discussion in both the Lok Sabha and the Rajya Sabha and is applicable to everyone. He criticized the Congress party, saying that their refusal to accept it is an insult to Parliament.
