💨 Abstract

BSP chief Mayawati has requested the Central government to reconsider and suspend the newly passed Waqf Act. The controversy lies in the provision allowing non-Muslims to be a part of the State Waqf Board, which Mayawati and the Muslim community find objectionable. The Act was passed in both houses of Parliament with a majority vote and received Presidential assent on April 5.
