Waqf amendment bill a conspiracy Against Muslims: PDP Chief

Says Hindus must stand up, muslims must stay vigilant to save India

KS News Desk 

Srinagar, Apr 2: Former Chief minister and Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) President Mehbooba Mufti on Wednesday strongly opposed the Waqf (Amendment) Bill tabled in Parliament.

She called the move a deliberate attempt to target the Muslim community.

Talking to media persons in Srinagar, she urged people across the country, especially from the Hindu community, to stand against what she described as an oppressive move by the BJP government.

 

She alleged that the bill is part of a larger conspiracy to marginalize Muslims in India.

She accused the BJP government of creating an atmosphere of fear through mob lynchings, demolition of mosques, and attempts to take over graveyards. She asserted that the country should function according to its Constitution and not according to a divisive agenda.

"If such policies continue unchecked, India could face internal divisions similar to those witnessed in Myanmar," she said.

She drew a parallel between the current situation and the exodus of Kashmiri Pandits.

"Just as the nation still feels ashamed of that episode, it should not allow history to repeat itself with Muslims," Mehbooba Mufti said.

She criticized BJP’s approach and said its policies were pushing the country towards fragmentation.

"No government is permanent and that those in power today will eventually be replaced. I urged the citizens of India to wake up and take a stand before irreversible damage is done," Mehbooba Mufti said.

Mufti's remarks come amid growing opposition to the Waqf (Amendment) Bill from various political and religious organizations.

While the BJP maintains that the bill aims to ensure better management of Waqf properties, opposition leaders argue that it is yet another move to suppress minority rights in the country. (Agencies)
