Waqf Act amended to neutralise changes made by Congress for 'appeasement': PM Modi

IndiaTimes Tuesday, 8 April 2025 ()
PM Modi defended the Waqf Act amendments, stating they rectify UPA's appeasement policies that favored fundamentalists and land grabbers, contributing to India's Partition. He asserted the 2013 changes prioritized land mafia interests over the Constitution, hindering justice for victims. The new law aims to protect common Muslims, with Parliament passing it after extensive debate and public consultation.
