West Bengal Assembly on Tuesday, even as BJP legislators staged a walkout opposing it. The resolution, moved by Minister Sovandeb Chattopadhyay, claimed that the bill, if passed, will affect the Waqf administration in the country and as such, extreme caution and due diligence are needed before any such drastic change is affected in the existing law.
BJP members staged a walkout from the House during discussion on the resolution.
Leader of Opposition Suvendu Adhikari said the resolution was a waste of precious time of the House as a Joint Parliamentary Committee (JPC) has been formed to examine the Waqf (Amendment) Bill, and that its term was recently extended till the last day of the budget session of Parliament in 2025.
Claiming that it was too early to comment anything on the bill till the JPC, which also features opposition MPs including two from the Trinamool Congress, submits its report, Adhikari said in the House the bill was brought in the interest of Muslim women and children, especially widows.
