It is already known that the government of India has passed the historic Waqf bill. However, in view of the multiple court cases that were filed against this amendment, the Supreme Court has reacted on this matter.
In response to the petitions that were filed against the amendment of the bill, Solicitor general Tushar Mehta informed the Court that no non-Muslim members will be appointed to the Central or State Waqf Boards under the amended law during this period.
He also clarified that existing waqf properties, including those established through long-standing community use, whether officially registered or not, will not be removed from waqf status for now. This assurance is meant to maintain the current situation until the Court completes its review.
The Supreme Court noted that the amendments bring major changes and need careful examination. The next hearing is scheduled for May 5, 2025.
The Centre has now provided some much needed clarity on this issue as there are several complaints about the status of the existing properties under this Waqf jurisdictions.
